The nose smells of ripe mandarins, maple syrup and chestnuts. Pleasant balance of acidity and sweetness. Aromas of citrus zest give the wine freshness and liveliness, with some smoked almonds in the depths. Location & Terroir In 1900, during the heyday of the Mosel Riesling, Julius Wegeler was given the unique opportunity to buy a part of the heart of the Bernkastler Doctor from the then mayor Kunz. The price at the time of 100 gold marks per vine surpassed anything that had come before and was hotly debated in the industry. Wegeler purchased 4,300 square meters, and the price included not only the vines, but also the historic Doctor cellar from 1650 and the wine stored there. A further purchase in 1910 made the Wegeler winery the largest owner in this historic location. An investment whose foresight has endured to the present day: The Doctor is still the most expensive wine location in Germany today. The legendary Bernkasteler Doctor rises on a steep slope directly above Bernkastel at a height of 125 to 200 meters above sea level. According to legend, it was named after Archbishop Boemund II, who, after being cured of a serious illness, called this location the "true Doctor." Internationally, Doctor wines are always at the top. At 3.26 hectares, it is one of the smallest individual locations in Germany.
