I really liked Haags 2017 (93p), 2018 (92p), and 2015 (91p), and hence bought six bottles of 2019.
The Brauneberger Juffer is classified as GG since 2012, steep (up tp 70% slope) slate soils.
Intense-complex Mosel-Riesling with salty minerals, mirabelle, smoked herbs, citrus freshness (7.3 g/l TA vs 2.7 g/l RS), light petrol, and a burnt caramel finish. Generally, the finish felt a bit short on day 1 and better on day 2. Early drinking window, not yet at Parkers 94-96p or Sucklings 95p but could get there in the next one or two decades.

We tasted this over two days, and it was much better on the second. Day one brought lots of youthful, primary fruit. Plenty of pineapple and a little bit of diesel in the background. Day one felt playful and naive. Day two showed more intrigue and balance as well as an added obvious layer of slate. Day two gave me the impression that the wine had figured out who it was, so to speak. I'd wait a while to see this wine at its best.

Hay yellow, relatively rich colour given age; flinty subtle buttery nose; relatively rich body with lots of nice acidity, meaty long aftertaste; a rich young Riesling

zu jung im Moment
Tag 1 mehr als 50 % getrunken. Um 88+. War nicht als GG erkennbar. Braucht Luft und oder Zeit oder beides.
Tag 2 deutlich besser, begann sich zu öffnen. Traubig und reintönig 90-91 Punkte.
Konsequent trocken mit einer guten, deutlichen, lebendigen Säure.
trinken: 2023-2031
best: 2024-2027?
90-91 Punkte?
