Keller Kirchspiel Riesling GG 2023

The Westhofen 2023 Kirchspiel Riesling GG is deep and intense on the concentrated and calcareous, slightly floral nose. Lush and round on the palate, this is an elegant, finessed and concentrated, very intense, tight and saline-finishing Kirchspiel with fine tannins. There are minty notes and white pepper on the finish. Tasted as a sample in May this year, the wine was to be bottled in July. 95-96 points, drink 2026-2050, Stephen Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate.
