"The Haag 2007 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spatlese drips with ultra-ripe melon, nectarine, and honey, with heady, gardenia-like floral notes, enhancing the impression of richness confirmed by a succulent, creamily-textured palate. In the best vintage manner, this possesses palpable extract, but treads delicately. An infectiously juicy and persistently floral finish is truly transparent to nuances of nut oils, salt and stone. This modestly-priced masterpiece is entirely worthy of the praise I heaped on its 2006 predecessor, and should be worth following for three decades."
