Description
The 2004 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule A.P. #9 consists of a selection of very tiny and in small measure botrytised berries. Smelling of peach jam and fresh lemon, this comes onto the palate with meaty, low toned richness, like a medley of veal stock, honey-drenched toasted nuts, and spice-tinged caramelized pit fruits. A lavishly creamy texture is pit against insistently bright citrus, yet the flavor marriage is harmonious and the long finish ultra-pure, elegant and without heaviness. The layering of honey, caramelized and fresh fruits, citrus, and slate displayed is surely worthy of three decade’s worth of archeological investigation.
