The 2023 Schloss Lieser SL Riesling Feinherb is an elegant off-dry Riesling from the Mosel, crafted by Thomas Haag from estate vineyards rooted in slate soils. It shows juicy red apple, ripe lemon and stone fruit alongside fresh herbs, subtle smoky notes and distinctive slate-driven minerality.
On the palate, it is light and energetic, with vibrant acidity balancing the gentle residual sweetness. Fresh apple and citrus provide a juicy core, while flinty mineral notes add precision and complexity. Fermentation and maturation in stainless steel preserve the purity and freshness of the Riesling, leading to a lively, balanced and lightly saline finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Riesling drinkers who enjoy an off-dry style with juicy fruit, vibrant acidity and classic Mosel mineral character. Its balance of delicate sweetness and freshness makes it particularly versatile with food. Ideal with spicy Asian dishes, grilled prawns, roast pork, duck, aromatic curries or fresh seafood.
