Tasting notes
AP number 24 20. Quite a deep colour. Really intense, classic Mosel nose giving no hint at the likely sweetness, or not, of the wine. The acidity is pretty marked at this stage. Pungent, smoky, reductive palate. Needs quite a bit of time for the fruit to emerge to dominate. (JR)

Wait a moment, because this has some funk from wild ferment that will need some time to blow off. However, behind that is a ripe, concentrated and graceful wine with a very long, filigree, mineral finish. Better from 2021.
Tasted as a sample in April 2020, the 2019 Brauneberger Riesling Trocken "J" offers a fine yet also intense and flinty bouquet of ripe fruits intertwined with broken slate and herbal aromas that, in fact, play the first fiddle on the nose while the fruit is the background. Round and highly delicate on the palate, this is a tight and tensioned but finely structured and persistent dry Riesling with lingering salinity and mineral freshness. Highly promising.
