The Weingut Wittmann Kirchspiel Riesling G.G. 2022 is a flagship dry Riesling from Germany’s Rheinhessen region, crafted by the Wittmann estate from the Kirchspiel vineyard. This 2022 vintage displays a pale gold hue and an intense nose of ripe apricot, lemon zest, and white flowers, with hints of petrol and wet stone. The palate is rich and concentrated, with vibrant acidity, a mineral-driven core, and a long, elegant finish with a touch of honeyed complexity. Fermented and aged in large German oak casks, this Grosses Gewächs reflects the limestone-rich terroir of Rheinhessen. Perfect with lobster, creamy risottos, or aged cheeses, it offers a luxurious dining experience. Rated highly by critics, it is drinking beautifully but can evolve over the next 10-15 years, developing richer, petrol-driven notes. This Kirchspiel Riesling is a collector’s gem, embodying Wittmann’s reputation for crafting iconic German whites with elegance and power.
