Domaine Camille Braun - Riesling - Prima Mise Tardive 2022
Riesling Prima Mise Tardive 2022 from Domaine Camille Braun embodies a noble and controlled interpretation of late-harvest Riesling, where the fruit's ripeness is expressed without ever losing precision. The golden yellow color with bright reflections announces a full-bodied and concentrated wine. The nose opens with intense aromas of ripe apricot, yellow peach, and orange zest, complemented by notes of fine honey, white flowers, and a delicately petrol-like touch typical of the grape at full maturity. Upon aeration, nuances of sweet spices and warm stone emerge, adding depth and complexity. The whole is expressive, rich but perfectly balanced, without excessive heaviness. From the first sniff, the wine asserts great elegance and true aromatic clarity.
On the palate, the attack is broad and silky, supported by generous body balanced by a structuring acidity. The natural sweetness of the wine is perfectly integrated, sustained by a mineral framework that brings tension and length. Flavors of ripe fruits, candied citrus, and honey continue with precision, never tipping into excess. Careful vinification and respectful aging of the fruit allow the Riesling to express all its complexity while maintaining great freshness. The palate gains depth as the tasting progresses, revealing a beautiful harmony between richness and finesse. The finish is long, elegant, marked by candied citrus, stone, and a persistent sensation of purity.
Riesling Prima Mise Tardive 2022 is a wine for gastronomy and contemplation, designed to accompany refined pairings. It pairs ideally with foie gras, lightly spiced Asian cuisine, blue cheese, or lightly sweetened desserts based on yellow fruits. It can also be enjoyed alone to appreciate the full complexity of its balance. Served around 10 to 12 °C, it fully reveals its depth and aromatic brilliance. Already very expressive, it has good aging potential, evolving towards more honeyed and spicy notes over time. It is a great late-harvest Riesling, precise, elegant, and deeply rooted in the identity of Domaine Camille Braun.
