Reichsrat von Buhl, Riesling Forster Kirchenstück GG 2025

Disclosure: I have a commercial relationship with this producer. See my ethics and disclosure policy.

A Kirchenstück with some high-toned fruit and floral aromas to go along with the deep and smoky qualities of this site. Sweet red cherries and peach sit atop a smoky wall of wet stones and gun flint. Wonderful stone fruit and red cherry flavor on the palate. Still a baby, and I feel it's a stronger 4 than a 4+. Needs time.
