Top quality German Riesling wines are usually quite expensive. At $1,150 this classically styled German white wine is a very good value.
This typically German styled wine has a lovely pale golden color and ripe fruity bouquet that literally bursts from the glass. The peach, plum and mineral flavors are well balanced with a very subtle tart finish. This is a dense and richly textured wine with a pleasantly long finish. Enjoy this wine with fresh Goat Cheese Salad, Pan-fried Goose or Duck Liver and German Sausages and Sauerkraut. This wine also matches nicely with Thai dishes including Spring Rolls, Lemon Grass Chicken and Chicken Coconut Cream Soup. Serve this wine well chilled, about 6 - 8℃.
The Thanisch family has been making wines since 1800. Later that century, under the leadership of Hugo Thanisch, a Doctor of Philosophy, the estate's wines achieved fame throughout Germany and Europe. Today, all of the Thanisch vineyards are planted exclusively with the Riesling grape, most of them non-grafted. The vineyards at Berncasteler Doctor have the distinction of being officially valued at the highest unit price per acre of any agricultural land in Germany.
