Weingut P.J.Kühn Riesling Doosberg Großes Gewächs 2023 white

Weingut P.J. Kühn’s Riesling Doosberg Großes Gewächs 2023 comes from one of the Rheingau’s distinguished grand-cru sites, combining the region’s classic Riesling heritage with a notably patient maturation style. Rather than releasing its wines as soon as possible, the estate allows its Grosses Gewächs wines extended time on the lees and in bottle, resulting in a composed, complex expression with excellent ageing potential.

Tasting Notes
The 2023 vintage is expected to show the poised, mineral character associated with the Doosberg vineyard, with a bright appearance and an aromatic profile built around citrus, orchard fruit, floral nuances and subtle stony tones. The estate’s restrained, long maturation style typically gives the wine additional depth and aromatic complexity without sacrificing freshness. On the palate, this is a dry, structured Riesling with vibrant acidity, concentrated fruit and a deep mineral finish. Earlier releases from the site have been praised for their calm, nuanced character and world-class complexity; while the 2023 wine is still young, it should develop further in bottle over the coming years and reward cellaring for well over a decade.

Production
The Doosberg vineyard extends along the eastern side of Oestrich, rising from the Rhine to approximately 150 metres above sea level. Its soils are deep and rich in carbonate, contributing structure, freshness and a pronounced mineral character. In keeping with the estate’s approach, the Grosses Gewächs wines are given extended maturation—first on the coarse lees and then on the fine lees—before further resting in bottle. This patient élevage allows the Riesling’s texture and complexity to develop before release.

Food & Serving
Serve at approximately 10–12°C, allowing the wine to warm slightly in the glass as its aromas unfold. Its combination of acidity, concentration and mineral depth makes it an excellent partner for freshwater fish, shellfish, roasted poultry, veal and dishes with creamy or lightly spiced sauces. It can be enjoyed immediately with a little air, but decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended while the wine is young; older bottles are best opened carefully and served without prolonged aeration.

Producer
Weingut P.J. Kühn is based in Oestrich in the Rheingau, a region with a long-standing reputation for serious Riesling. The estate is particularly recognised for its patient approach to maturation, allowing its top wines considerably more time before release than is common in the market. This emphasis on site expression, composure and cellar development has helped establish P.J. Kühn as one of the Rheingau’s respected producers of high-end Riesling.
