Other Reviews....
Tasted as a sample in April 2018, the 2017 Kirchspiel Riesling GG is very clear and smoky on the fresh and lemony nose. This is a tight, intense and linear Riesling with lemon-fresh spiciness in the finish, which is lean and elegant, very fine and balanced. Lingering salinity and piquancy, long and expressive.
92-93 points
Stephan Reinhardt - Wine Advocate
Very complex, herbal nose, the fruity notes way in the background. Really concentrated but also super-elegant with a fine-grained texture that’s unlike any other Wittmann GG. Exceptionally long finish with intense chalky character. From biodynamically grown grapes. Respekt certified. Great aging potential. Drink or hold.
