Just tasted this last week. It was the Brauneberger Juffer Kabinett
2003 and it was excellent. Well balanced acidity with more sweetness
than the pradikat promises (2003 was extremely hot). On the nose:
green apple, slate and rose. On the palate: some slate and
minerality, dry fruit and apple. Just off spritzy which, for me, hid
some of the white peach and lychee that I thought I detected on the
finish. While there's enough youth still in it to enjoy it right now,
I'm told that I should hide this away for 5 or 10 years and expect
wonderful results. Plenty of people have written off the 03's; they
should try this one.

Also tasted the '04 Spatlese. My favorite compared to the 8 other
regional 04 Spatlese's I tasted it against. Perfectly balanced.
Strong slate and crystal-like clarity of fruit (apple, lemon-oil and
peach). More apple on the nose. Nothing was overstated, allowing
everything to come through on the palate. Long finish which sparkled
on the tongue.

At 3 times the price, the 04 was expected; the 03 was a great
surprise and, in my opinion, a bargain.
