There are many places where viticulture is easier than on the steep terraces of the Mosel; it’s one of the most extreme wine-growing regions in the world. And yet, in 2019, Daniel Fries decided to return to the family winery after completing his studies. It has paid off: the Pinot Noir from the best plot of the Domgarten, 100m above the river on a cool, windy east-facing slope, displays the cool elegance and graceful lightness that used to be found in Burgundian wines. Caro Maurer MW: Red cherry fruit mixed with a green leafy note, and the spice of toasted oak. An elegant style that never goes out of fashion; lightness and nonchalance. Mark Dearing: Ripe and fresh, a well-proportioned blend with tender tannins and plush redcurrant and plummy fruits. Pleasure-bound, not dense or heavy. Stefan Neumann MS: A balanced palate shows a truly elegant, lifted red fruit element and intensity. Lively in the glass, joyful: very well done.
