Since 2000, Roman Niewodniczanski has consistently focused the estate on dry single-vineyard wines, meticulously revitalizing the steep slopes and employing minimal intervention in the cellar. The Gottesfuss vineyard – a steep, slate-rich south-facing slope directly above the Saar River – is a \u003cstrong\u003eVDP Grosse Lage®\u003c\/strong\u003e (Grand Cru) vineyard, one of the highest-classified vineyards in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e On the nose, this vintage from old vines initially displays a spicy, slightly reductive character: citrus peel, white pepper, and herbs, underpinned by a dense minerality reminiscent of freshly broken slate. On the palate, it develops juicy, ripe fruit – red currant, white currant, and a hint of yellow plum – supported by lively acidity and a pronounced saline minerality on the finish. The finish is taut, long, and provides a clear conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Best served between \u003cstrong\u003e10 and 12 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e . Drinking window: now until 2032, peaking from 2025. Pairs well with Arctic char with beurre blanc, grilled sea bass, scallops, or a mature goat cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Van Volxem","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":53019246887248,"sku":"VJ0689-2022","price":54.61,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2023","offer_id":53019246920016,"sku":"VJ0689-2023","price":54.61,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/520102_2001.png?v=1779107977","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/wiltingen-gottesfuss-riesling-alte-reben-vdp-grosse-lage%c2%ae","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
