Nahe Weissburgunder Trocken Römerstich 2022 Hees

Overview

Awarded 96 points by James Suckling: "The purity of the pomelo and yellow grapefruit is extraordinary, as is the intensity of the dried flower aromas. Vibrant, concentrated and medium-bodied on the palate, there is a wonderful richness of lemon cream , followed by a mineral and saline acidity that lights up the sky, giving the impression of lightness in the brilliant finish, essential for this category."
