Tasting notes
The fragrance is showing the acceptable face of spontaneous fermentation with vegetal aromas of elderflower and mint. First Riesling of the day and already the WOW factor! If there is such a thing as crunchy passion fruit, this is it, and rhubarb and sorrel lend a sappy green and invigorating edge. Lifted even more by an almost steely acidity.

This wine is rather reduced but offers a gorgeously flowery nose of pear and Provence herbs. It proves superbly elegant on the palate where grip and saltiness define the aromatics. Great multi-layered complexity already comes through in the long and airy finish. This is still very primary and in need of bottle age to balance out but this beauty will easily turn into the most complete and elegant expression of Kirchberg we have tasted to date.
