Pettenthal, Riesling, Grosses Gewächs, 2021
A little more composed and straight-laced than the Hipping, with very fine wild fermentation notes, delicate white fruit with cool spice. Fine extract gives an elegant, linear structure and while this is super precise and focussed, there’s nothing hard – just a mile long finish. “A perfect Pettenthal vintage” Oliver proclaimed. Along with Hippingthis is one of the key sites in the Roter Hang – the iron rich slate tending to be composed of larger plates, which contributes to the wine’s signature sense of composure.
critic reviews
The straw-yellow colored 2021 Nierestein Pettenthal GG shows a deep, pure and intense nose of ripe and concentrated Riesling berries intertwined with herbal and yeasty notes of crushed stones. Lush, intense and savory on the palate, this is a full-bodied and generous, vital and elegant Pettenthal with a tight yet playful, structure and a long, intense and complex finish. This is an impressive Riesling from this cru in which KG holds a homogeneous piece of 1.5 hectares in the Grosse Lage classified part. The finish is saline and stimulatingly piquant. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in October 2022.
