2009 Wittman 100 Hugel Riesling Trocken

Phillip Wittmann from Westhofen in the Rheinessen is recognised as one of its top producers, focussing on the production of dry wines. Organic and biodynamic practises are the foundations of this estate's philosophy. The '100 Hugel' range is aimed at delivering a fresh, aromatic and lively style of Trocken. Bright pale straw colour with pale straw hue. The nose displays good lift with floral top notes followed by some ripe tropical fruits, ripe lime and some honeyed characters. The palate delivers off-dry (or medium dry) flavours of ripe pineapple, tropical fruits and ripe citrus with a clean crisp acid finish. Impeccable fruit / acid balance. Long aftertaste of tropical fruits, pineapple and citrus.
