The 2022 Schloss Lieser Niederberg Helden Riesling GG is a dry Riesling from one of the Mosel’s renowned steep-slope vineyards. Crafted by Thomas Haag from vines rooted in Devonian slate, it shows peach, nectarine and Mirabelle alongside citrus, delicate herbs, white pepper and distinctive slate-driven mineral notes.
On the palate, it is concentrated and finely structured, with vibrant acidity bringing tension and precision to ripe stone fruit and citrus. Firm mineral character runs through the wine, complemented by savoury herbs, subtle spice and a gentle rounded texture. The finish is long, dry and persistent, with pronounced saline and slate-like complexity.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Riesling drinkers looking for a serious, dry Mosel expression with concentrated fruit, vibrant acidity and impressive mineral depth. Built for further bottle development, it will reward cellaring while retaining excellent freshness. Ideal with grilled fish, roast pork, prawns, roast chicken, mushroom dishes or aged cheeses.
