Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling GG

The Wehlener Sonnenuhr is considered one of the great Riesling sites of the Middle Mosel — steep blue slate slope, southern exposure, extreme heat radiation. Schloss Lieser, one of the renowned wineries in the Bernkastel-Kues area, vinifies a Grosses Gewächs from it that needs time and deserves it.

In the glass, the wine shows that it has not yet revealed everything: aromas of ripe yellow fruit, dried herbs, and a distinct yeast note — classic signs of a young, dense Mosel Riesling in development. With air, it opens up, revealing delicate anise tones and a hint of wax. The minerality comes from the slate, not the label.

On the palate: taut, lively acidity, juicy fruit with real grip — not a soft drinking wine, but a Riesling with backbone and depth. Citrus zest in the background, a long, biting finish. Those who open it now get a wine in a stage of development; those who wait will be rewarded with complexity.

Schloss Lieser

VDP Member Estate

The winery Schloss Lieser looks back on a fascinating history that reaches back to the 19th century. The castle was built between 1885 and 1895, the winery founded in 1904. Today the winery is owned by Thomas Haag and stands for a long tradition in the production of high-quality Mosel wines. It is picturesquely situated on the Mosel and extends over some of the best sites in the region. The steep slopes and the slate soil offer ideal conditions for the cultivation of Riesling, which is the main grape variety of the winery. The winery combines traditional winemaking methods with modern technology to produce wines of exceptional quality. The range of Weingut Schloss Lieser includes a wide palette of wines that reflect the diversity and quality of the Mosel region. Particularly noteworthy are the Rieslings, which are the trademark of the winery and are known for their elegance, freshness, and minerality. At Schloss Lieser, quality is the top priority. The winery relies on careful manual work in the vineyard and gentle processing of the grapes in the cellar to unfold the full potential of the wines. Winemaking takes place taking into account traditional methods and state-of-the-art viticultural techniques to produce wines of the highest quality and authenticity.
