The history of Weingut Wwe. Dr. H Thanisch, Erben Thanisch is extraordinary, dating back to 1636. It is currently overseen by Sofia Thanisch, representing the 11th generation and the fourth woman to manage the estate. The name of the vineyard, Bernkasteler Badstube,is indeed named after historic communal bathhouses-public bathing being imported as an idea by returning crusaders. The soil here, fine slate, makes for wines with racy acidity and great potential.
This is made from late picked bunches, making for a sumptuous texture, particularly in the warmth of 2018 - whilst remaining upbeat and fresh.
"Badstube is a huge vineyard, running north to Graacher
Himmelreich. The Thanisch holdings are all at the
Bernkastel end however. Nervy and tightly packed
when tasted, this has an explosive drive, matched blowfor-blow by its impressive volume of pear fruit, tinned
peach and herbs - wonderfully precise"
