Von Winning Riesling Pechstein Grosses Gewachs 2022 750ml

The intensely golden-yellow 2022 Forster Pechstein Riesling GG VDP.Grosse Lage is, as always, highly complex, pure, intense and fresh on the dense, saline and herbal, dramatically flinty (and slightly oaky) nose, as if a volcano had spit out the wine from its inner depth and laid it down on a bed of basalt. Full-bodied, intense and rich yet also tight and thrillingly saline on the palate, this is an elegant, powerful, tightly structured and lemony Pechstein with mandarin aromas and very fine tannins. The finish is very intense and complex, mesomorphic yet also fleshy and fruity.
