Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spätlese

The extremely steep Brauneberg hillside is an isolated, south-facing slope that is one of the drier vineyards in the area, a great advantage in this wet, northern climate. The Juffer vineyard produces lighter, more delicate wines than the warmer, riper Sonnenuhr vineyard that the Juffer vines surround. The Juffer Riesling Spätlese has fine, forceful fruit in the aroma, a linear focus on the palate and a pure, slate finish.
