Wittmann Riesling Westhofener Morstein Auslese Goldkapsel 2015

WineSaint

Honeyed stone fruit and candied citrus peel open to a luxurious, almost viscous texture that somehow maintains lift. The sweetness is intense but never cloying, with bright acidity providing essential backbone. Exceptional length and concentration point to graceful development over the next decade.
