Degustationsnotiz James Suckling vom 19. Juli 2021
What an energetic and mineral nose! So sleek and straight, but with plenty of power behind it, then a ton of wild-berry and herb notes at the finish. A cuvee of wines from the GG sites, Orbel and Oelberg. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold.
Stephan Reinhardt vermerkt im August 2020 zum Muster des Weingut Wittmann Niersteiner Riesling 2019 trocken:
The intensely yellow colored 2019 Niersteiner Riesling "Aus Ersten Lagen" is pure yet intensely aromatic on the almost chalky nose (although this is from a Rotliegend terroir). Round and silky on the palate, this is a fine and pure yet charmingly elegant and aromatic dry Riesling with delicate acidity and a long, fresh and elegant finish. There are lemon flavors on the pure and finely grippy aftertaste. Tasted as a sample in April 2020.
