Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

Schloss Lieser, Lieser Niederberg Helden, Riesling, Kabinett, 2017

A crystalline nose that moves from classic wild ferment notes to grass and then red apple, juicy and fruit forward on palate with fine extract and iron rich spiced fruit. There's an almost granular mineral quality across the mid palate, while pithy grapefruit notes dominate the finish.

ABV:
8%
91/100
David Schildknecht, Vinous

Golden Delicious apple is wreathed in lily-of-the-valley and tempered by pungency and brightness of fresh lime on a penetrating nose and a buoyant, glossy, generously juicy palate. The finish lingers lusciously and with a saliva-stimulating hint of salinity. As with all of the 2017 Schloss Lieser Kabinetts, high residual sugar is successfully balanced out by efficacious acidity and extract.

Schloss Lieser

Schloss Lieser

This Estate is one of the new stars of the Mosel that in Thomas Haag (son of Wilhelm at Fritz Haag), has one of Germany’s brightest up and coming winemakers. His prime plots of land are in the top due south-facing Niederberg Helden vineyard of Lieser. Though just a few hundred metres from his father’s Brauneberg vineyards, the heavy thicker set grey/blue slate of the Helden vineyard produces heavier wines that sometimes require more initial bottle bottle age before showing their true colours. Rigorous work in the vineyard and microscopic attention to detail in his cellars, guarantee a consistent production of good wines in poor years and outstanding wines in great years. In fact, Thomas can regularly claim to have the Mosel’s lowest yields. Since 2004, Thomas has been exploiting some vines in the famous Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr vineyard, given to him by his father Wilhelm Haag of the Fritz Haag estate.
