Awards/Ratings
Falstaff 92+ points (2023 tasting). VDP Grosse Lage site designation for Goldtröpfchen; earlier vintages have received high praise (e. g. , Robert Parker/Wine Advocate 93+ for 2021)

Tasting Note
Delicate, stone-fruit and citrus core (tangerine, lime) with candied citrus peel, subtle honey and pronounced slate minerality. Bright, juicy acidity balances fine residual sweetness and yields a long, crisp finish.

Food Pairing
Pork belly, roasted poultry, grilled salmon, shellfish (shrimp, scallops); spicy Asian dishes (Thai green curry, Szechuan pork), sushi, dim sum, sweet-and-sour dishes, mildly aromatic Indian curries.

Production Method
Hand‑harvested from Goldtröpfchen parcels, gentle low‑pressure pressing, cool slow fermentation (often with native yeasts), fermentation stopped/managed to retain Kabinett residual sugar; lees aging and minimal filtration.

Vineyard Info
Weingut Schloss Lieser (revitalized by Thomas Haag in the 1990s) farms steep slate sites including Piesporter Goldtröpfchen; member of VDP and known for classic Mosel Rieslings.
