Reviewed May 2023

From 40- to 50-year-old vines, the 2022 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett opens with an intense but filigreed and refined nose of ripe Riesling berries and delicate notes of weathered brown slate and pink grapefruit. Pure and saline on the palate, this is a light, filigreed and almost fragile but lush Kabinett that is enormously saline and highly stimulating on the finish. The 2022 already drinks beautifully. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2023. (SR)

Staff Reviews

Scott Beckerley

Max Ferdinand continues its winning streak with this Kabinett! It is a beautiful balance of sweetness and acidity. Lovely stone fruit and tropical fruit flavors with vanilla cream and underlying citrus that hits the upper palate just right. Better than just good and has a wonderful price, as well. Should be well into the thirty dollar range for this quality.

Notes

92pts Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2022er Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett was made from fruit picked at 81° Oechsle on 40-year-old vines and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (53 g/l). It offers a beautiful nose made of pear puree, bitter grapefruit zest, whipped cream, a hint of apricot blossom, earthy spices, and smoky elements. The wine is beautifully juicy and finely creamy on the nicely light-weighted palate and leaves a great feel of juicy ripe fruits in the long and mouthwatering finish. This is a gorgeous Kabinett, which may have a tad more creaminess than recently but is no less enjoyable. 2027-2042." (06/2023)
