Knewitz – Riesling Steinacker GG 2023

This Riesling pours into the glass a pale yellow with delicate green reflections. The first impression is restrained, dominated by flint combined with salty notes and a freshness reminiscent of citrus fruits. Slowly, notes of yellow pear, mirabelle plum, and cool exotic tones of grapefruit emerge, alongside hints of ground elder and chamomile. The initial palate is animatingly racy and piquant. The acidity is concise, merging with salty notes to create a lean body. The wine has great drive, builds tension on the finish, and leaves behind a piquant mouthfeel. The cool, salty aromas in the aftertaste underscore the raciness of this classic Riesling.
