The Estate Riesling comes mainly from vineyards around Kues, on the left bank of the Mosel. Pure lemon and lime aromas, with white pepper. Steely acidity and lemon rind on the attack, devolving into a wonderfully supple and sherbety mid-palate, sustained by fresh acids through to a focused finish. 10.5% abv. Bottled under screwcap.
"Soft-shelled Mosel loveliness and clipped lemony precision, opening onto ample apricot fruit. This will mellow and meld with age but frankly, why wait when it’s this good now?!

Weingut Wwe. Dr. H Thanisch, Erben Thanisch in the heart of Germany's Mosel, dates back to 1636 and is currently overseen by 11th generation Sofia Thanisch.
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.
