Wagner-Stempel’s 2022 Heerkretz Riesling Grosses Gewächs is a taut and bone-dry white wine from a wind-swept, volcanic site in Rheinhessen. Harvested from 35-year-old vines on a steep porphyry slope, this vintage manages to stay lean and athletic despite the warmth of the year. It opens with notes of citrus leaf, pine needles and a smoky mineral scent reminiscent of wet flint. On the palate, the wine is compact and vertical, driven by a sharp acidity that highlights flavours of tangerine and grapefruit zest. The finish is remarkably saline and grippy with a chalky texture.

The 2022 Riesling Siefersheimer Heerkretz Grosses Gewächs was harvested in late October from the oldest parcels in the Heerkretz (35+-year-old Riesling) on an exposed, cool, stony, steep portion of the site. The nose almost has something of eau de Cologne: that mix of conifer, citrus leaf and citrus. The palate holds juicy mandarin and tingling tangerine concentration. It makes itself felt in intense zestiness. This feels warmer than usual, despite the moderate alcohol. But what savor, what vividness and what concentration. It`s a vision of citrus and perfume.

Picked between 19 September and 10 October, so over 21 days, and bottled in June of the following year, the 2022 Heerkretz Riesling GG shows a clear, pure and rocky yet intense and substantial bouquet. Though still closed and a bit untamed at this very early stage, the wine should be generously aerated if it is to be served soon. On the palate, the 2022 is a quite rich, lush and intense but also finessed and sustainably mineral-structured Heerkretz that represents the generous sun and heat of the vintage, whereas the crystalline and enormously saline finish adds a coolish, terroir-driven twist that defines the wine in the very end. This is a mouthfilling but fresh, lean and mineral Riesling of very promising quality. It shows fine and grippy tannins but no hints of bitter phenolics. 12.5% stated alcohol. Diam cork. Tasted in August 2023. - Stephan Reinhardt

RS 3.9 g/l, TA 7.1 g/l.
More herbaceous than Bischel Heerkretz, with verdant herbal lift and spice in addition to the orchard-fruit fragrances. Nimble and nuanced juicy palate, fine-boned grip. Long, salty and crisp. Unfathomable depths with tremendous concentration and length. (PS)
