Learn More About This Wine

The Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr vineyard is the heart section in the Brauneberger vineyard mountain, close to the river and surrounded by the Juffer vineyard. In Burgundian terms the Juffer-Sonnenuhr is a kind of “Premier Grand Cru”. The vineyard was Thomas Jefferson’s favourite Mosel when he visited the area in 1788. The Brauneberg faces totally south and has got lots of iron minerals (‘brown mountain’). It enjoys a worldwide reputation.

Healthy grapes had been handpicked early October 2023 at 106 degrees Oechsle from old vines. Fermentation was done temperature controlled in traditional old oak barrels with indigenous yeast. Bottling was done on 26th March 2024.

“It offers a beautiful, closed nose made of wet stone, orchard fruits and smoke. The wine offers a beautiful feel of rhubarb, cream and citrusy fruits on the palate and leaves a vibrant and quite intense feel on the palate. It proves beautifully long, subtly oily, but highly precise in the beautifully persistent finish.” – Jean Fisch and David Rayer, Mosel Fine Wines, September 2024.
