From a 26-year-old parcel, the 2016 Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese #10 is dense and flinty on the deep and concentrated nose. On the palate, this is a lush and mouth-filling, piquant and salty Auslese with a grippy, still-nervous finish. Quite sweet. Tasted March 2018. Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

A fascinating nose mingles sea breeze, intimations of wet stone, and smoky struck flint with high-toned nut extracts, ripe nectarine and mango. The lusciously fruited, creamy, almost weightless palate leads into a sensationally sustained, at once soothing and stimulating finish that left my salivary glands palpitating and that, for all of its sheer richness, not to mention high residual sugar, displays a fascinating array of stony, smoky and saline mineral nuances. David Schildknecht, Vinous
