Wine Description:
Keller's Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling RR demonstrates ripe fruit from an iron-rich vineyard sector. It emphasizes that subtle residual sugar can enhance elegance by reducing alcohol content, a point often overlooked by top German growers. This wine maintains ample acidity and extract, balancing the modest residual sugar. The aroma combines kirsch and mirabelle distillates with hints of mint and a touch of wood smoke. The palate is substantial, bright, and rich in multi-citrus intensity, extending into a gripping finish. A hint of honey enhances the fruit's richness, while salt and stone provide complexity. This Riesling is poised to age gracefully for at least a decade.
Pros:
  • Intense and complex aromas of citrus, stone fruits, and floral notes
