Discover the elegant 1648 Riesling feinherb from Weingut Thanisch, a winery steeped in tradition in the heart of the Mosel region. This delightful Riesling showcases the unique terroir of the Mosel, where steep, slate-rich slopes meet the cool climate, creating wines of exceptional character and finesse.
The 1648 Riesling feinherb is a testament to Weingut Thanisch's commitment to quality and their mastery of the Riesling grape. 'Feinherb' indicates an off-dry style, offering a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. The wine bursts with vibrant aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and citrus fruits, complemented by subtle floral notes and a distinctive minerality that is characteristic of Mosel Rieslings.
On the palate, this Riesling is crisp and refreshing, with a lively acidity that dances across your tongue. The sweetness is perfectly integrated, adding depth and complexity without being cloying. The flavors echo the aromas, with juicy fruit notes mingling with a hint of slate and a touch of spice. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of elegance and balance.
This versatile wine is a fantastic accompaniment to a wide range of dishes. Its off-dry character makes it an excellent match for spicy Asian cuisine, such as Thai curries or Vietnamese spring rolls. It also pairs beautifully with seafood, salads, and light poultry dishes. For a classic German pairing, try it with a slice of apple strudel or a creamy cheese.
Weingut Thanisch's history dates back to 1648, and their dedication to sustainable winemaking practices ensures that the vineyards remain healthy and productive for generations to come. The estate's meticulous attention to detail, from vineyard to bottle, is evident in every sip of this exquisite Riesling. It offers an authentic taste of the Mosel, capturing the essence of its unique terroir and the passion of its winemakers.
