Dynamite. Shimmering. Sappy and pure but cut like a diamond and so nimble. Shows its class.

Now fully assured that the first time I was wow'd by this wine wasn't a fluke. The Kuhling Gillot Pettenthal is some serious juice. An incredibly ripe yet intense nose of mineral, fruit and funk is then contrasted by a bonedry and textural performance on the palate. Don't even get me started on the length of the finish.

Stunning. Thanks to @Lyle Fass for turning me on to this. Kind of ruins my interest in other Riesling, though. At least for now!

Terrific aromas. Tropical and petrol. Very deep and mineral. Palate is rich and complex with a nice spine. Aging your dry Riesling ask lets the wine spread out texturally. Gorgeous.

Super yellow fruits. More ripe than Hipping, mineral bit buried by precise fruit. Acidity. Huge nose. Juicy. Insanely mineral after some air.
