"The 2016 Brunnenhäuschen Riesling GG is intense, ripe, pure and salty on the nose, very deep and elegant with ripe fruit and spicy/salty aromas. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, fresh, finessed and salty dry Riesling with power and grip but also purity, finesse and a lingering salinity intertwined with fine tannins. This is full-bodied, rich and pure Riesling with excellent aging potential.
Philipp Wittmann didn't produce any sweet Auslese in 2016, a vintage where he had to fight for the right ripeness, especially for the Rieslings. His 2016 grand crus (Grosses Gewächs) are great wines, although they don't have the richness, concentration and power of the 2015s. The "GG" parcels were picked at the end of October and deliver clear, fresh and terroir-driven dry Rieslings of which the auctioned La Borne and Morstein are outstanding wines full of purity, finesse and elegance. Wittmann selected so strictly in the vineyard and cellar that quantities of the crus are up to a third less than usual. All the vats whose wines didn't taste persistent enough were downgraded to village level."
