The Berncasteler Doctor vineyard is located behind the village of Bernkastel and is one of the most famous vineyards in Germany. For generations the name Thanisch has been synonymous for luxurious white wines from the Mosel. The estate gained its international reputation in the middle of the 19th century under the ownership of Dr. Hugo Thanisch. From that time on, Thanisch wines repeatedly obtained spectacular prices at international auctions.
After a careful selection in the vineyard, the must is extracted via whole-cluster pressing, fermented exclusively with natural yeasts, and no additives followed by careful filtration,the results is a very complex wine that will improve over time.
This wine is bright golden in colour. It has a flinty minerality combined with a hint of elderflower and opulent ripe yellow fruit with touches of pineapple, mango and elderflower. A dash of salinity adds another dimension to this elegant wine.
Pefect with match Poultry and Salads but can also cope with a Spicy Pasta or Curry.
