Note di degustazione
Wittmann's Westhofen 2023 Aulerde Riesling GG continues the top performances of the last five years. It has a deep, concentrated, fresh and citrusy nose with substantial saltiness and still some reduction, reminiscent of clay, lime and lime chutney, and a dense and tightly woven palate. This is a fleshy, juicy and concentrated, very youthful but elegant and balanced Aulerde with great potential and long-lasting minerality and savoriness, but it's also generous and elegant in its fruit expression. Tasted at the Vorpremiere VDP.Grosses Gewächs in Wiesbaden in August 2024.

AP number 16 24. Certified organic. Light and lemony – all about the fruit here and not about the winemaking. Fragrant without being floral. Almost delicate in its citrus and peachy purity. But the acid spine leads to a long finish. Deliciously dry, stony finish, almost salty. Not dramatic but with great intensity. (JH)
Cool citrus, ripe melon, wet stone. A nearly tropical and juicy generosity is followed by a taut saline thread. Textured phenolic grip on the finish lends structure and shape. (PS)
Bold, compact and concentrated, this astonishing dry riesling GG makes a very serious statement. It also remains cool and restrained, with a glittering thread of flint winding through the textural complexity on the medium- to full-bodied palate. Try to be patience, because this is delicious now, but the tension in the extremely long finish and the youthfulness of the aromas speak of wine with decades of life ahead of it. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink from release.
