Max Ferdinand Richter Brauneberger-Juffer-Sonnenuhr Spatlese

The palate is silky, slate‑etched, and quietly powerful, opening with lime zest, white peach, and cool citrus tonescarried by the ripe yet balanced acidity of the 2018 Mosel vintage. A mid‑palate of pineapple, tangerine, and crushed wet slate adds both lift and mineral depth, while the sweetness is fine, pure, and seamlessly integrated, giving the wine a gentle glide. The texture is lush but precise, with a faint thread of smoke and flint emerging as it opens. The finish is long, salty, and finely detailed, tapering with citrus oil, orchard‑fruit skin, and a lingering mineral echo.
