Wittmann Riesling Trocken 2023

$45.00

Pure, precise and quietly powerful. This is dry Riesling done properly.  Bright citrus, green apple and white peach, with a fine line of minerality and a subtle saline edge that keeps everything tight and refreshing. Certified organic and unmistakably Wittmann in style, this is a Riesling that delivers clarity, finesse and serious drinkability.

The Wittmann’s have been making wine in the village of Westhofen, Rheinhessen since the 17th century. Far from resting on their laurels, the family were early to adopt organic practices, becoming certified in 1990, and biodynamic from 2004. Philip Wittmann is currently at the helm, and like his wife Eva Clüsserath (who runs her own family’s Mosel estate), is one of the superstars of the German wine industry. Situated on the left bank of the Rhine River, Rheinhessen is Germany’s largest wine region. Its a fertile valley of gently rolling hills, protected from cold fronts by the surrounding hills and forests.
