Wittmann Kirchspiel Riesling GG 2021

The Kirchspiel grand cru site opens toward the Rhine like an amphitheatre. Its southern and southeastern exposure protects the vines from cold westerly winds – and accounts for the excellent microclimate of the vineyard.
The soil structure is similar to that of the Morstein site, marked by clayish marl interspersed with limestone. Limestone is the predominant component of the subsoil, too.

“The nose of this stunning 2021 riesling GG is a kaleidoscope of beautifully ripe stone fruit aromas. Stunning concentration and refinement, but also wonderfully spicy. Full bodied, yet enormously refreshing. Very long finish with intense mandarin orange and chalky characteristics. Enormous aging potential. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Vegan. Drink or hold” 96 Points. Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com
