⭐️89/100⭐️ 𝑹𝒊𝒆𝒔𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒑𝒂̈𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒆 “𝑳𝒊𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒓 𝑺𝒖̈𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒈”, 1999 📍Lieser, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany🇩🇪 🍇100% Riesling ⚡️8,0 % Tasted: May 2021 The estate is located in Lieser, just a couple miles from Bernkastel, Mosel, where it’s been in function since 1648. They rule a total of 7 he of vineyards, including top sites in Brauneberg and Lieser. The area is mainly planted to Riesling (75%), and the rest is Pinot varieties (Blanc and Noir) and Rivaner.
Since 2001, Jörg Thanisch has run the business. Classic and conventional methods are used for winemaking:
Fermented with native yeasts (in steel tanks) to express the vineyard as close as possible. Afterwards, the wine is matured almost a year in big, old barrels on the lees.
The wine is filtered before bottling. Cork intact (only juiced 1/3 through). Lovely fruity aromas of ripe mango, lime peel, elderflower and lemon curd, followed by “matured Riesling notes” of mild petrol, eraser, warm plastic, beeswax and wet stones. The palate was impressively youthful; lean, fruity and semi-sweet with an acidic kick, offering ripe pear, canned peaches, pomelo, Mirabelle plum, a hint of butterscotch and honey, finishing with a delicate, mineral touch. Not the most complex matured Riesling I’ve had, but for sure a lovely glass that I’d love to taste again.
