The fragrance shows clear notes of citrus fruits with a hint of herbs and nettle. Well portioned fruit, sweetness meets freshness on the palate. Enjoyable with and without food!

2011  Spatlese, Dry

100% Riesling. Dry. 12.5% alcohol. Opens with a whiff of kerosene. Focused and precise, rather full-bodied for a Mosel, but very nice. nicely balanced sweetness with acidity. In 1997 Thomas Haag bought the estate. He is the son of Wilhelm Haag, proprietor of the Fritz Haag estate. The estate is now comprised of seven hectares (17.5 acres) of vineyard which are 100% planted to Riesling. The vineyards are some of the steepest on the Middle Mosel with grades up to 70%. Thomas strives to make wines with ripe acid structure, vibrant and petillant palate, with the pure expression of fruit - racy and light.

100% Riesling. Great riesling with an aromatic fruit profile tending more towards the middle - pear & some peach skin. A little grip, suggesting there might have been some skin contact. Medium+ acidity. Nice weight. 10.5% abv. Dry!
