Love that petrol taste in German Riesling. Lots of sugar but high in acidity. — 5 days ago

Followed this wine across three days, and I’d say it was an excellent example of Roseneck. Poured out with a mostly bright green-yellow colour, with touches of light golden hue on some angles in the light.

On day 1, it had aromas of flint, sea spray, apples, fresh honey, and a touch of petrol. Palpable minerality on the palate, almost painfully so. Not the weightiest, but it sure had intensity. Notable sparkly acidity.

On day 2, I had an 08’ Schlossberg to compare with and this was clearly the more filigreed of the two. The 09’ Roseneck was lighter, more mineral, and less complex. It felt greener even - perhaps it was picked earlier in light of the warm vintage. Comparison aside, the nose evolved a little from day 1, with the petrol hints disappearing altogether, the honey note becoming more like honey candy instead of fresh honey, and the appearance of white florals. The palate was again sparkly, with a palate-staining minerality.

I felt day 3 was the best showing of the 09’ Roseneck, with the fruit and floral notes taking a back seat, and the salinity just dominating. Notably, it looked fresher than the 08’ Schlossberg on this day. The palate was just all about that sea spray. The palate was wild - tasted a lot like salted limes doused with fresh honey. The finish was super mineral with hints of lime zest and green apples. Just pure energy!

I’ve seen quite a number of tasting notes on CL noting that the 09’ Roseneck’s possibly close to its peak but I’m inclined to believe otherwise. — a year ago

Petrol nose. Peach / green apple. Not too acidic and dry enough to hide the sweetness. — 2 months ago

Palate: on the sweet side. Nice peach. Solid. Mountain stream. Sort of lovely if not not brilliant.

De Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel 2018 is een bijna perfecte zoete witte wijn uit de Moezelstreek, geproduceerd door de topper Oliver Haag.

Kleur: Helder strogeel met gouden reflecties.

Neus: Expressieve aroma’s van exotisch fruit zoals ananas en sinaasappel, aangevuld met tonen van abrikoos en een vleug honing. 

Smaak: In de mond presenteert de wijn zich met een indrukwekkende zuiverheid en precisie, met rijke smaken van tropisch fruit en citroen, ondersteund door een levendige zuurgraad die de zoetheid in balans houdt. 

Afdronk: Een lange, verfrissende afdronk met aanhoudende minerale tonen en een hint van honing. — 10 months ago
