Dr H Thanisch (Thanisch) Riesling Kabinett 2017 Magnum
£55.00
Why Mark chose this
A magnum of Mosel Riesling Kabinett from one of the valley's old, respected estates is a proper find. Kabinett is the lightest style of Riesling, fermented to low alcohol with a touch of natural sweetness that balances the slate-driven acidity perfectly. The 2017 is a lovely vintage for Mosel, and in magnum it will keep going for years yet. This is the style of wine that converted people to Riesling in the first place.

Tasting Notes
The Estate Riesling comes mainly from vineyards around Kues, on the left bank of the Mosel. "Soft-shelled Mosel loveliness and clipped lemony precision, opening onto ample apricot fruit.
