"The 2015 Kirchspiel GG is a superb wine in the making. The bouquet is nascently complex and very precise, wafting from the glass in a mix of orange, sweet grapefruit, chalky minerality, just a touch of wild yeasts, citrus zest and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very, very racy, with a rock solid core, brisk, ripe acids and stunning backend mineral drive on the very, very long and oh, so promising finish. A magical vintage for the Kirchspiel."

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
