The nose reveals, lighter more subtle petrol characteristics, ripe golden apple, ripe fleshy pineapple , apricots, marmalade, lemon syrup, grapefruit with pith, honey, beeswax, a little lime candy, white spice, dry stones, yellow lilies and spring flowers.

The body is thick, rich, waxy and a touch syrupy. Dry, pineapple & apricots, golden apple, peach, lemon syrup, lime candy, some green apple, grapefruit with pith, marmalade, orange rind, fruit blossoms, honey, beeswax, soft delicate minerality, very light petrol notes, slate, white spice with yellow lilies and spring flowers. Acidity is round and magnificent. The 09 is in a good place with plenty of life ahead. The rich, lush, well balanced finish is persistent for minutes.

Excellent with spicy Asian food.

Photos of, the view across the river from their Weingut and their Bernkasteler Doctor Vineyard, the blue slate this wine grows in, Sofia Thanisch finishing up with a group before our one on one tasting and the view of Bernkasteler Doctor Vineyard from the other side looking down at the river.

Starting to hit it's stride. Rich ripe pineapple, green apple, lemon custard, mad tropicals, yellow florals and good clean minerality. Paired well with the spicy beef lettuce wraps.

Refreshing, sweetness very well balanced by high acidity - doesn't feel nearly seven years old. Drunk and enjoyed greatly with French onion soup.

Sweet but with integrated tartness. Aromatic. Fruity flavor with strong apple/ pineapple/mango hints. Great with spicy food. Has to be one of my favorite Mozel valley Rieslings.

Crisp apple nose. Starts with honey and nectar moving to citrus with the honey re-emerging in a long finish.
