The 2023 Riesling Gutswein remains on the fine lees for a long time and is mostly aged in large wooden barrels. This creates a Riesling that, like no other wine, stands for the idea of a puristic origin wine. Grown on the calcareous soils in Westhofen. Intensive artisanal vineyard work and traditional winemaking in large wooden barrels make this wine a \"true\" Wittmann. The aroma features citrus, grapefruit, and gooseberries. The dry estate Riesling shows deep, powerful Riesling fruit supported by an elegant acid structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRiesling Estate – VDP.GUTSWEIN\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate wines, like this Riesling Estate, are the winery's calling card, which is why elegance and a fine expression of origin are particularly important to us for these wines. The grapes come from the winery's own vineyards, which are farmed biodynamically and cared for by hand. They are ideal food companions, and not just in their first year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWeingut Wittmann – how wine is made\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riesling grapes grow on the gentle hills around Weingut Wittmann in Westhofen in Rheinhessen. The vineyards are cultivated biodynamically, which means not only refraining from chemical-synthetic agents, but above all activating soil life and mindfulness in the daily walk through the rows of vines. \"Every contact is a dialogue,\" Philipp Wittmann sums it up. This means intensive vineyard care throughout the year, low yields, and consistent hand selection of the grapes form the basis for the high wine quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter manual harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed and the must is transferred to the cellar without pumping, solely by gravity. There, it has time to ferment spontaneously in traditional wooden barrels and remains on the fine lees for a long time, which gives the wine structure. In the end, much is tasted and blended, because each wooden barrel contains only the must from a few rows of vines, until the perfect balance is found. Winemaking is a matter of the head with heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003ean organic wine and its values\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin Wine from Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowing region Rheinhessen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinery Wittmann\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVDP.
