wittmann kirchspiel riesling gg riesling 2020
Reference: 101863Stock: 6 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
the wittmann estate is located in the town of westhofen in the southern part of hesse-rhine and covers 25 hectares. documents have been found that prove the presence of viticulture in this town as early as 1663. since 1990, the estate has gone from a reasoned agriculture to an organic agriculture and it is now cultivated in biodynamy since 2004. it has four different vineyards: aulerde (the warmest), kierchspiel, (a vineyard with a high proportion of limestone that opens up to the rhine in the shape of an amphitheater), brunnenhauschen (the highest vineyard) and morstein (which has existed at least since 1282). all the vineyards are located on gently sloping hillsides. the grapes are harvested by hand, delicately pressed, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and aged in tuns. the wittmann estate belongs to the family of "modernists" who prefer to produce wines with a higher alcohol content and less residual sugar. the 2020 kirchspiel gg opens very clear, bright and chalky on the spicy, chablis-like nose that indicates a lovely complex riesling from limestone rocks. juicy, round and intense on the palate, this is a mouthful of wine with fine tannins and a generous nature. the finish is salty and vital, very long and complex and indicates great aging potential.
