Von Winning Deidesheimer Kieselberg Riesling Grosses Gewachs, Pfalz, Germany 2021
The 2021 Kieselberg Riesling trocken VDP. Grosse Lage comes from a plateau above Deidesheim with sandstone and limestone in the soil. Fermented spontaneously in 500-liter oak vats and still maturing in them, the barrel sample shows a clear, elegant and savory nose of bright and ripe fruit aromas intertwined with oaky and yeasty notes. Creamy textured and very elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, tight and saline-finishing Riesling with fine and grippy tannins and lingering salinity and mineral tension. It's still very young but worthy to be cellared for at least a decade. Tasted at the domaine in November 2022. To be released sometime next year.
