O wytwórni:
"Żywa legenda, kandydat do najwyższego miejsca na podium w tej części Mozeli. Ostatnio krytykowany, n Niemczech mówi się, że po odmłodzeniu winnic ulotniła się finezja i głębia. My wątpliwości nie mamy i uważamy te wina za wybitne. Styl bardzo klasyczny, mało skoncentrowany, wymagający swoistej lektury, ale wspanialszych wcieleń raczej nie osiaga (...)" - Wina Europy 2009
O winie:
"The 2004 Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett sticks with a style that Wilhelm Haag has chosen for this wine in recent vintages: relatively dry-tasting and in his view “traditional.” (The Selbachs are pursuing a similar stylistic path with most of their Kabinett wines.) Amazingly, though, so efficacious are the acids and dry extract of 2004, that the Haags went all the way up to 45 grams of residual sugar this year in order to achieve a merely subtly sweet character. Scents of fresh lime, pear, honeydew melon, and grapefruit set one’s mouth watering to receive a brightly wrapped package of fruits, herbs and minerals that keeps a cool, refreshing, “green” side without tasting in the least under-ripe. Hints of honey and brown spice subtly warm up the palate picture. The impeccably-balanced finish is juicy, elegant, transparent to a wealth of subtle for-lack-of-a-better-word “mineral” nuance and fascinating in its intricate sense of interplay. Freely admitting my own stylistic predilections – which I have nevertheless tried to abstract from in arriving at a numerical score – this is my kind of Kabinett. I would recommend enjoying it over the next couple of years, then waiting until it has had 10 to 12 years to rediscover how much complexity is inherent in the wine. 92/100 (David Schildknecht)" - The Wine Advocate, luty 2006
