Full-bodied with good concentration, though the finish shows some heat from those late-harvest Niersteiner Orbel grapes. The richness works, but just barely stays in balance.

Wittmann

One of Rheinhessen's benchmark estates, Wittmann works the limestone and loess slopes around Westhofen to produce dry Rieslings of real precision and age-worthiness, with a strong lineup of Grosse Gewächse from some of the region's most compelling sites.
