"The 2023 Riesling Deidesheimer Kieselberg Grosses Gewächs, from a site that is both ventilated and warm, was made entirely in tonneaux with 20% new wood. Bright, lively notes of Reine Claude plum meet with a superb frisson of crushed lemon balm and lifted lemon peel. The palate holds bright juiciness that is aligned to tart yellow plum and a touch of tangerine. Streamlined, taut, concentrated and vividly bright, this lovely GG is so open and so very charming. (Bone-dry)"
