Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Trocken GG
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.
Grosses Gewachs (GG) (Grand Cru – corresponds to a dry Auslese) from the best and steepest part in the Juffer – Sonnenuhr vineyard: the “Falkenberg”. Brown and blue slate soil reflect the characteristics of that precious terroir.
Ripe, red vineyard peach, quince and apricot are paired with spicy flavours and ferruginous slate stone minerals. Elegant and very refined, yet with intense length and long lasting finish.
