"AP: 09 18. Besides a possible auction lot, Weingut Fritz Haag produces two separate “regular” bottlings of Juffer-Sonnenuhr Auslese GK which carry the AP09 and AP12 (#12 on the label) in most vintages, whereby the AP 09 sees a little bit less botrytis. The 2017er Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Auslese GK AP09 was harvested at a full 122° Oechsle, i.e. technically at BA levels. It displays a sublime nose of almond paste, pear puree, coconut cream, candied peach, anise and smoke. The wine is very intense and dense on the palate, and leaves one with an immensely complex feel in the outstanding length. This is a highly refined Auslese GK in the making."
