with hints of mint

and hints of spice and earth

This is perfectly good but nowhere near as good as several other of the Giroud villages wines

I see quite ripe fruit here

Once again there is a whiff of exotic fruit to the white peach

Wittmann, Kirchspiel Riesling GG other_regions_italy with hints of mintThe 2020 Kirchspiel GG opens very clear, bright and chalky on the spicy, Chablis like nose that indicates a lovely complex Riesling from limestone rocks. Juicy, round and intense on the palate, this is a mouthful of wine with fine tannins and a generous nature. The finish is salty and vital, very long and complex and indicates great aging potential. Tasted in Wiesbaden at the end of August 2021.
