This estate’s long name – Weingut Wwe. Dr. H. Thanisch, Erben Thanisch – means the winery of the widow (witwe, abbreviated to “Wwe”) of Dr Hugo Thanisch, as passed down the Thanisch side of the family - nearly four centuries of history here. Sofia Thanisch and her daughter Christina represent the family’s 11th and 12th generations. Christina is now working with her mother following international wine business studies at Geisenheim University and work experience in Austria and New Zealand. Sofia and Christina are the fourth and fifth women respectively to manage the estate, Sofia having taken over from her Aunt Mechtilde in 1996.
"This has pliancy and cushioning of fruit, with notes of grapefruit and lychee, offset against precise, zippy acidity. Joyful, this offers excellent value
The Badstube is wonderfully open in style, food-friendly, ripe, yet focused – lovely wine"

Weingut Wwe. Dr H Thanisch
Weingut Wwe. Dr. H Thanisch, Erben Thanisch in the heart of Germany's Mosel, dates back to 1636 and is currently overseen by 11th generation Sofia Thanisch.
Germany produces some of the world’s very finest white wines, presenting natural, grapey richness complemented by racy acidity. A really fine example sets off a roller coaster of emotion akin to a skilfully played piece of music.
