Max Ferd. Richter Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett 2022

Wine Advocate : 93 Points

(5/31/2023) 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.

(6/1/2023) 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.
