Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling GG

The Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard is considered one of the great Riesling sites of the Middle Moselle – a steep, blue slate slope facing south, with extreme heat radiation. Schloss Lieser, one of the renowned wineries in the Bernkastel-Kues area, vinifies a Grand Cru from it, a wine that needs and deserves time.

In the glass, a wine reveals itself that doesn't yet give its all: aromas of ripe yellow fruit, dried herbs, and a distinct yeasty note—classic signs of a young, dense Mosel Riesling still developing. With aeration, it opens up, revealing delicate anise notes and a hint of wax. The minerality comes from the slate soil, not from the label.

On the palate: firm, vibrant acidity, juicy fruit with real grip—not a soft, easy-drinking wine, but a Riesling with backbone and depth. Citrus zest in the background, a long, crisp finish. Open it now and you'll get a wine still developing; wait and you'll be rewarded with complexity. Drinking window: 2025–2035.

Lieser Castle

The Schloss Lieser winery boasts a fascinating history dating back to the 19th century. In 1904, Eduard Puricelli acquired Schloss Lieser and began cultivating vines. Today, the winery is owned by the Nett family and represents a long tradition of producing high-quality Moselle wines. Picturesquely situated on the banks of the Moselle River, it encompasses some of the region's finest vineyards. The steep slopes and slate soil offer ideal conditions for growing Riesling, the winery's primary grape variety. The winery combines traditional winemaking methods with modern technology to produce wines of exceptional quality. The Schloss Lieser portfolio includes a wide range of wines that reflect the diversity and quality of the Moselle region. Particularly noteworthy are the Rieslings, the winery's signature wines, renowned for their elegance, freshness, and minerality. In addition, the winery also produces other grape varieties such as Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc, which perfectly express the terroir and the winemaker's expertise. At Schloss Lieser, quality is paramount. The winery relies on meticulous handwork in the vineyard and gentle processing of the grapes in the cellar to unlock the full potential of the wines. Winemaking is carried out using traditional methods and state-of-the-art viticultural techniques to produce wines of the highest quality and authenticity.
