Fritz Haag Riesling 2017

Aged on the lees until the end of April, the 2017 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling is delicate and fine on the nose, still yeasty and crunchy in its slate and floral notes. On the palate, this is a delicious, wide, dangerously lush and fruity Riesling with a firm, crystalline structure and fine tannin grip (thanks to six hours of maceration). This is super round and sexy, but the wine has a serious structure and elegance. This should taste great in 10 or 20 years, and it would be a waste of talents to drink the 2017 any earlier. Tasted in March 2019.

Like biting into a crisp pear but without the sweetness. This is very clean and bright with great balance. Whatever time of day or night it is, you can grab this and head to a restaurant! Drink now or in 2019 and 2020. Screw cap.
