“This Riesling is a crowd-pleaser—precise, bright, and mineral-driven: a real treat to taste!”
“How can such a mysterious labyrinth be so delightful? Because at every turn, you discover a new facet of this wine’s beauty. The incredible tension between the wine’s flinty and floral notes makes it remarkably lively for a dry Riesling of this concentration. Then comes a stunning freshness of Amalfi lemon in the extremely long and precise finish. [...]” (James Suckling 2024)

Jancis Robinson

Distinct smoky notes from spontaneous fermentation. Creamy texture and fresh citrus. Elegant and long-lasting, with a hint of honey on the finish. 2026–2033
Vinous
Wine rated (2024 guide) 96/100
About the wine:
The 2023 Westhofener Kirchspiel Grosses Gewächs Riesling offers notes of lemon balm and chervil, deeply fragrant and delightfully herbaceous. The palate bursts with freshness, like a mountain stream over stone, sinking deeper and deeper into the cool limestone with its serene, luminous, and lemony aroma, and the slightest creamy edge—quite seductive. Pure, ripe lemon zest shines on the finish. 2028–2055

About the wine:
How can a mysterious labyrinth be so delightful? Because at every turn, you discover a new facet of this wine’s beauty. The incredible tension between the wine’s mineral and floral notes makes it remarkably lively for a dry Riesling of this concentration. Then comes a surprising freshness of Amalfi lemon in the extremely long and precise finish. Made from biodynamically grown grapes and Respekt-certified. Drink now or cellars.
Falstaff
Wine rated (2024 guide) 96+/100
About the wine:
A malty, herbaceous nose; a powerful, vibrant aroma; mineral energy; dark notes; nutmeg; and earthy tones. On the palate, it unfolds with a broad, full-bodied, and deep structure; a rich body that complements the spices and minerality; and impressive intensity.
