Weingut Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch, Erben Thanisch may well be quite a mouthful, but the name makes sense and it is worth noting the detail as there are other, neighbouring estates with similar names. Here we have the winery of the widow (witwe, or“Wwe”) of Dr Hugo Thanisch, as passed down through the Thanisch side of the family. The estate has a long tradition, dating back to 1636. Sofia Thanisch, currently at the helm represents the eleventh generation of this remarkable family. She is the fourth woman overseeing the estate. Sofia has two daughters, Juliane and Christina, the latter having studied international wine business at Geisenheim hoping to take over one day – the 12th generation and 5th female. The vineyards are all planted with ungrafted Riesling. The wines are exemplary insights into the Thanisch family style – an enticing marriage of very pure fruit and slate minerality.

Germany produces some of the world’s very finest white wines, presenting natural, grapey richness complemented by racy acidity. A really fine example sets off a roller coaster of emotion akin to a skilfully played piece of music.
