Berncasteler Doctor is a vineyard of world renown, impossibly steep (65% gradient) and fabulously sited – planted entirely with ungrafted Riesling. This is gloriously decadent – even in this, its embryonic form – all promise. The nose combines super-ripe fruit with a slightly spiced, smoky note – stunning. The palate takes up the gauntlet setting caramelised orchard fruit within a deliciously hedonistic texture, plush silken, ripe and layered with minerals in support - such grace and deportment – a wine which warrants patience.
"The Thanisch estate provides hallmark freshness, purity and distinctive minerality. Individually selected late picked bunches add opulence without sacrificing crisp, fresh acidity – very lovely wines"

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.
