Weingut Knewitz Riesling Hundertgulden Großes Gewächs Bio 2024 white

Weingut Knewitz Riesling Hundertgulden Großes Gewächs 2024 is a premium, organically produced dry Riesling from one of Rheinhessen’s most renowned sites. Defined by its exceptionally calcareous soils, the wine combines striking mineral character with energetic acidity, impressive concentration and the elegant precision associated with Germany’s Grosses Gewächs classification. The Hundertgulden vineyard has been recognised for centuries, taking its name from the many times it changed hands for substantial sums of Rhenish guilders.

Tasting Notes
In its youth, this Riesling is likely to show a pale, bright appearance and a deliberately restrained, almost reductive nose. With time in the glass, aromas of crushed stone, chalk and flint emerge alongside delicate green fruit, citrus and subtle earthy nuances. The palate is taut, powerful and exceptionally mineral, with vibrant acidity giving the wine a juicy, mouthwatering flow and a long, focused finish. The 2024 vintage should be approached with patience, as the wine’s structure and mineral intensity are expected to unfold gradually. Decanting or extended aeration can reveal additional layers, while careful cellaring should allow the Riesling to develop greater complexity over many years.

Production
The Hundertgulden vineyard is celebrated for the extraordinary carbonate richness of its limestone-dominated soils, which lend the wine its distinctive chalky, stony character. As an organically produced Grosses Gewächs, it represents the highest level of site expression from Weingut Knewitz. Specific details of the 2024 harvest and vinification are not provided, but the wine’s style is defined by precision, concentrated Riesling fruit, pronounced mineral freshness and a dry, age-worthy profile.

Food & Serving
Serve at approximately 10–12°C, allowing the wine to warm slightly in the glass as it opens. Its lively acidity and mineral depth make it an excellent partner for shellfish, grilled or steamed fish, seafood risotto, roast poultry and dishes featuring asparagus or fresh herbs. For the young 2024 vintage, decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended, particularly if the wine initially appears closed.

Producer
Weingut Knewitz is a respected family estate in Rheinhessen, a region increasingly recognised for its site-driven Rieslings and limestone terroirs. The Knewitz brothers have brought the character of the Hundertgulden vineyard to the bottle with a precise, mineral-focused style that highlights the estate’s exceptional sites rather than relying on overt richness. Their organically farmed wines have helped reinforce the reputation of Rheinhessen as one of Germany’s leading regions for sophisticated, age-worthy Riesling.
