The 2023 Schloss Lieser Niederberg Helden Riesling Kabinett is an elegant Mosel Riesling from the renowned Niederberg Helden vineyard. Crafted by Thomas Haag, it shows white peach, grapefruit and clementine alongside subtle herbs, gentle smoky notes and the distinctive wet-slate minerality of the site.
On the palate, it is light-bodied and energetic, with juicy citrus and orchard fruit balanced by crisp acidity and delicate sweetness. The wine remains remarkably fresh and precise, with a creamy touch through the mid-palate complemented by savoury herbs and pronounced stony minerality. The finish is long, vibrant and finely balanced.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Riesling drinkers who enjoy classic Mosel Kabinett with delicate sweetness, vibrant acidity and pronounced mineral character. Delicious now but capable of developing further complexity with cellaring. Ideal with spicy Asian dishes, grilled prawns, roast pork, duck, aromatic curries or fresh seafood.
