"As always, this site has yielded a wine that has a Mosel-like raciness and sleekness, but the bergamot, orange blossom and shiso leaf aromas give this its own distinct personality. Elegant, but also very expressive on the cool, precisely detailed, medium-bodied palate. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Riesling Dorsheimer Pittermännchen Grosses Gewächs was grown on the Devonian slate. The nose is still slightly clouded by reduction. The palate is very fluid, cool, soothing, stony and lemony. There are edges of lemon pith and more of that yeasty texture with a pleasantly astringent finish that casts its lemon length far. The lemon notes accentuate the salty, stony length. (Bone-dry)"

"Diel's 2022 Pittermännchen GG shows a deep, dense yet fine nose of perfectly ripe and concentrated fruit married to dissolved salts. Dense and powerful on the palate but also delicate and with herbal notes without being green, as well as vital and elegant, this is a fine and balanced Pittermännchen that is once again one of the highlights of the vintage. Tasted at the Vorpremiere VDP.Grosses Gewächs in Wiesbaden in August 2024."
