Riesling Westhofener Kirchspiel Großes Gewächs
-- John Gilman: Klaus-Peter Keller’s old vines in the Kirchspiel are forty-nine years of age in 2013, and 2014 is going to have to be another stellar vintage if the fiftieth birthday bottling of these vines is going to keep pace with this beautiful wine! The 2013 Kirchspiel offers up a wonderfully pure and refined nose that just exudes limestone minerality in its mélange of mandarin orange, gentle smoky tones, wild yeasts, kaleidoscopic minerality, orange zest and a nice dollop of dried flowers in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and absolutely defined by its brilliant complex minerality, with superb mid-palate depth, electric acidity, seamless balance and laser-like focus on the very, very long, primary and dancing finish. A brilliant vintage of Kirchspiel GG. 2022-2065+. 95+/100
