Weingut Wittmann Morstein Riesling Grosses Gewachs, Rheinhessen, Germany 2024
Morstein Riesling Grosses Gewächs 2024 is one of Germany’s great dry Rieslings and a true cellar wine. From the heart of the legendary Morstein vineyard in Westhofen, planted on limestone-rich clay marl, it combines extraordinary concentration with remarkable precision and energy. Lemon zest, ripe yellow fruit, fresh herbs, chalk, and saline minerality lead into a razor-focused, endlessly long finish. Bone-dry, biodynamically farmed, and built to age for decades, this is Rheinhessen Riesling at the highest level.
"The 2024 Riesling Westhofener Morstein Grosses Gewächs flickers with yeast, chervil and lemon zest in equal measure. The palate is so cool and calm. There is something utterly serene here, with the purest lemon and limestone. It is enduring and eternally calm. This may be quieter than other Morstein vintages, but it has confidence. The 2024 is fresh, bright and salty. (Bone-dry)." Vinous 98
