"This Riesling for connoisseurs is universally acclaimed, precise, bright, and mineral: a great tasting experience!"
"How can a mysterious labyrinth be so delicious? Because at every turn, you discover a new aspect of this wine's beauty. The incredible tension between the flinty and floral aspects of this wine makes it remarkably energetic for a dry Riesling of this level of concentration. Then comes an astonishing freshness of Amalfi lemon in the extremely long and precise finish. [...]" (James Suckling 2024)

About wine:
The Riesling Westhofener Kirchspiel Grosses Gewächs 2023 presents notes of lemon balm and chervil, deeply fragrant and deliciously herbaceous. The palate bursts with freshness, like a mountain stream over stone, sinking deeper and deeper into the cool limestone with its serene, bright, lemony fragrance and the slightest hint of creaminess—quite seductive. Pure, ripe lemon zest shines on the finish. 2028-2055

About wine:
Malty and herbaceous nose, powerful and energetic aroma, mineral energy, dark aromas, nutmeg, soil. On the palate, it develops a broad, ample, and deep tension, an extracted substance that courts spices and minerality, with impressive intensity.
