Wittmann Riesling Westhofener Kirschspiel Grosses Gewächs 2014
White
Rheinhessen, Germany
7.7
WineSaint
Bright citrus oils and white flowers open to reveal the Kirchspiel's signature mineral backbone. The texture shows surprising richness for this typically austere site, with glyceral weight balanced by razor-sharp acidity. Crystalline precision with a long, saline finish that speaks directly to the chalky terroir.
