Weingut Wittmann Riesling Gundersheimer Aus Ersten Lagen 2022

Weingut Wittmann’s 2022 Gundersheimer Riesling comes from the estate’s “Aus Ersten Lagen” range, showcasing the distinctive limestone-influenced character of southern Rheinhessen. Its vineyard, Gundersheimer Höllenbrand, lies near the celebrated Westhofener Morstein and is known for wines with ripe fruit balanced by a cool, mineral edge.

Tasting Notes
The available tasting note describes an earlier vintage rather than the 2022, so it should not be taken as a precise profile of this bottle. It suggests the site can yield Riesling with aromas of peach, apricot and clementine, opening with air to reveal cooler, gently smoky and spicy nuances. On the palate, mango and pineapple accompany a subtly creamy texture, with mineral and herbal accents.

Production
Gundersheimer Höllenbrand is characterized by clay-marl soils over a substantial limestone bedrock, a combination associated with the pronounced mineral character of wines from this part of southern Rheinhessen. Harvesting and vinification details for the 2022 bottling were not provided.

Food & Serving
Try it with grilled or roasted fish, shellfish, or poultry with citrus and herbs; its fruit and mineral character should also complement mildly spiced Asian dishes. Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C. A brief rest in the glass can help its aromas unfold; decanting is not essential.
