critic reviews
The 2025 Riesling Niersteiner Pettenthal Grosses Gewächs only shows the tenderest reduction. The palate is incredibly juicy, a swoosh of pale and yellow peach, beautifully accented with tangerine zest. You almost forget all the saltiness, the tinge of savor underneath. All this exquisite and alluring fruit on show right now comes back to its undeniable core: that savor of the red soil. Give this time; everything is here, it will just take a while to reveal.
