Wittmann Riesling Gundersheimer trocken 2017

Dense aromatics of white peach, wet stone and honeyed citrus open to a palate that feels heavy-handed and muddled. The texture is thick rather than precise, missing Wittmann's signature crystalline clarity. Frost damage shows in the wine's clouded expression from these clay-heavy vineyard sites.

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.
