Fritz Haag Juffer-Sonnenuhur Riesling Spatlese
| Vintage: | 2020 |

| Description: | Tasting Notes\r\nThe Juffer Sonnenuhr is the choicest center cut of the Brauneberg \u2014 the steepest and most south-facing part of the hillside. This Grosse Lage (grand cru) site produces profound, distinctive wines with great purity and concentration.\r\nThe 2020 growing season began mild, as usual, although with more preciptation than in recent years. But by early March the temperatures had begun to rise noticeably, hovering around 20\u00b0C at the beginning of April. Fortunately, we came nowhere near the peak temperatures of 2018 or 2019, and the vines are slowly adapting to the warmer weather, year after year. We are especially enthusiastic about the elegant, classically styled Kabinett and Sp\u00e4tlese we produced this year, with a few precious gems in the nobly sweet Pr\u00e4dikats.\r\n \r\nABOUT The Fritz Haag ESTATE\r\nThe Fritz Haag estate is a historic family winery that dates back to 1605. The Haag family farms 29 hectares (72.5 acres) of vineyards in the heart of the Mosel Valley. They produce only Riesling, covering the full style spectrum, from dry to lusciously sweet. A intense \u201cslate\u201d character and a pronounced, fruity acidity give the wines their elegant sophistication and their great aging potential. The estate\u2019s graceful, well-defined Rieslings are universally lauded as examples of the finest wines the Mosel region has to offer |
