More information on wine critics and ratings

His prime plots of land are in the top due south-facing Niederberg Helden vineyard of Lieser.

Though just a few hundred metres from his father's Brauneberg vineyards, the heavy thicker set grey/blue slate of the Helden vineyard produces heavier wines that sometimes require more initial bottle age before showing their true colours.

Rigorous work in the vineyard and microscopic attention to detail in his cellars, guarantee a consistent production of good wines in poor years and outstanding wines in great years. In fact, Thomas can regularly claim to have the Mosel's lowest yields.

Since 2004, Thomas has been exploiting some vines in the famous Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr vineyard, given to him by his father Wilhelm Haag of the Fritz Haag estate.

Robert Parker (RP) : 94 Points (2020)
The 2020 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett offers a clear, pure, precise and refined nose with bright and elegant fruit aromas as well as white tea notes. Lush and super delicate on the palate, this is a highly finessed, stimulating and saline WSU with great precision and very fine slate expression. This is an absolutely gorgeous Kabinett. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022.

Wine Spectator (WS) : 92 Points (2020)
A lightweight, intense white defined by a mix of floral, peach, celery seed, chive and slate aromas and flavors. Racy and linear, with a terrific finish. Drink now through 2038.

James Suckling (JS) : 96 Points (2019)
Still some yeastiness from the wild ferment, but this opens beautifully with aeration. A entire botanic garden of flowers of all colors and origins. Concentrated, yet so filigree and delicate, the finish super long and as refreshing as an Alpine stream. Perfect balance in this delightful no-man’s land between dry and sweet. Drink or hold.

A little more reticence than the Niderberg Helden with salted limes and slate spice on the nose. On the palate this packs more punch and drive, with mineral edges and an invigorating sense of…

Slate, smoke, herbs and complex mineral notes dominate the nose, while on the palate there’s a wonderful finesse to the cool apple and red berry flavours. Linear, fine, complex and slate driven. A grown up Kabinett.
