Wittmann Kirchspiel Riesling GG

A powerful but finely structured dry Riesling from a superb Grosse Lage (grand cru) vineyard in the Rheinhessen region.

The Kirchspiel vineyard opens up like an amphitheatre toward the Rhine and receives the sun’s first rays in the morning. Here the vines, with their east to southeast exposure, are sheltered from the cold west winds; this provides the Kirchspiel with a choice microclimate. Our vineyards here are planted mainly in the upper portion of the site, with a gradient of up to thirty per cent.
