Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The delicious, very elegant, lovely mineral and well-balanced 2013 Berncasteler Doctor Riesling Kabinett should be drunk as a juicy Spätlese rather than as a Kabinett. The wine underwent a malolactic fermentation in winter before the alcoholic fermentation restarted and that's not the worst thing that could have happened. In fact it is an excellent wine with just the wrong Prädikat.

Wine Spectator
Unctuous, with a lively spiciness to the rich flavors of baked apple, dried apricot and peach cobbler. Fresh acidity supports the lush finish, which is airy yet powerful. Drink now through 2022.

Wine Enthusiast
A touch of caramelized sugar adds richness to sweet pineapple and mango notes on this deftly extracted kabinett. The palate dazzles with acidity, but it's balanced in sweetness and a murmur of lime-zest astringency on the finish.

The internationally renowned estate Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch Erben Müller-Burggraef is located in the picturesque town of Bernkastel-Kues alongside the Mosel River. Here, estate manager Maximilian Ferger cultivates 40 acres of top notch, steep slope Riesling sites. For generations the name Thanisch has been synonymous for luxurious white wines from the Mosel. In 2015, the winery invested into a state-of-the-art estate building made of heat-insulating concrete which allows optimal storage. In the subterranean cellar, temperatures remain perfectly steady. During harvest, the wine gently flows into the respective tanks via “Free Flow” from the press hall into the cellar. The building also makes use of natural resources: rainwater is collected in two underground cisterns and use for cleaning while the winery’s photovoltaic system generates power.
Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch Erben Müller-Burggraef is certified as FAIR’N GREEN, a holistic sustainability assessment which integrates business, environmental and societal goals. Within the scope of the holistic approach to sustainability, the entire management, the outdoor operations, the cellar management and the marketing are constantly optimized.
