Tasting notes
Wittmann's 2020 Brunnenhäuschen GG is clear, pure and elegant on the coolish nose that reveals ripe, fresh and slightly citric fruit with chalky notes. Silky, filigreed and frisky yet also dense and intense and salty on the palate, this is a sustainable, super expressive terroir wine with a tight structure and persistent salinity. A great dry Riesling from Westhofen's limestone terroir. Tasted in Wiesbaden at the end of August 2021.

Clean fragrance combines the fruit of fresh apple and citrus fruit, augmented by a delicate almondy notion. On the palate the juicy fruit is supplemented by a smidgeon of residual sugar and a delicate bitter nuance of almond and grapefruit pith. Once the fruit has wooed the taste buds, it gets a little more rugged but never rough with a tactile stony minerality. Plenty of substance. (MS)
