Wittmann, Kirchspiel Riesling GG other_regions_italy 7% alcoholThe 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. Tasted in Wiesbaden at the end of August 2021.
