Note di degustazione
The 2021 Morstein Riesling GG shows a very clear, elegant and rested nose with a fine fruit core, which is light in color like the chalk that seems to trickle over this Morstein with a dash of fresh lemon juice. A spicy, finely racy acidity on the palate leads to a dense, firm and serious palate with a long, very tense finish. This is a classic Riesling that is quite demanding in its mercilessness, but it's one that will continue to amaze for many years to come. It's very long and draws saliva from every corner of the mouth. This is great, if a little stingy in terms of fruit ripeness due to the vintage, which the finish reveals. But never mind, the wine is stimulating! Tasted at the domaine in August 2024.

Composed of Morstein satellites and younger vines (six plots), as well as Brunnenhäuschen and Aulerde (one plot each), the 2021 Westhofener Riesling "1G" offers a dense and intense, saline and flinty bouquet of ripe Riesling fruit with notes of crushed rocks and Amalfi lemons. Silky, lush and savory on the palate, with lingering lemon juice notes, this is a compact and tensioned, very elegant, pure and saline Riesling that can easily compete with so many Grosses Gewächs Rieslings in Germany this year. It is a stunning wine with salinity, lovely grip and tension, but it's already accessible. A Must Have. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in August 2022.
