Following on from the brilliant 2017<br />

wines, Stephan Attmann and his team<br />

trump this with excellent 2018 wines –<br />

which of course are a little more full in style<br />

than its taut predecessors – yet they show as<br />

much balance and inner conviction. We are<br />

happy to place bets on the fact that the dense<br />

and deeply mineral 2018 Kirchenstück will<br />

still sing in 20 years’ time. However, the von-<br />

Winning-style can also be had in a more accessible<br />

price category. The wines from the “Win-<br />

Win” series or the equally well-priced Erste<br />

Lage Paradiesgarten are full of expression and<br />

elegance.<br />

98 2018 Forst Kirchenstück Riesling GG<br />

Some wood, also spicy, cumin, chilli and mineral undertones.<br />

On the palate; broad, supple, but also sturdy. Ripe acidity, the<br />

high intensity level lasts for a long time, everything is densely<br />

interwoven. Very, very mineral. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€€€<br />

96 2018 »Marmar« Riesling<br />

Restrained wood influence, concentrated citrus aromas, also<br />

herbs and volcanic rock. A supple start to the palate, an increasingly<br />

fine texture, a tactile minerality which spreads<br />

evenly and gently across the palate. 13 Vol.-%. cork, €€€€<br />

95 2018 Forst Ungeheuer Riesling GG<br />

A little wood, citrus fruit, tangerine, warm brick. Powerful on<br />

the palate, smooth extract, subtle sweetness balances the<br />

ripe acidity. Very fine but clearly present phenolics, textured,<br />

full bodied with an intense fruit-driven finish.<br />

13 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

93 2018 »500« Weisser Burgunder trocken<br />

Closed on the nose. Notes of wood, hay, sultana and linden<br />

blossom. Supple, viscous opening, pronounced fruitiness, immediately<br />

vivid, powerful tactile mineral background. Lots of<br />

juice behind the dense structure. Indicative of the warm vintage<br />

showing concentration but not alcohol.<br />

14 Vol.-%. cork, €€€<br />

90 2019 Deidesheim Paradiesgarten<br />

Riesling Erste Lage trocken<br />

Citrus notes on the nose, candied lemon peel, grapefruit, a<br />

touch of nutmeg and lemon balm. Supple attack, a little<br />

spritz, medium weight extract. Quite linear in structure<br />

with ripe acidity and discreet sweetness underlining the<br />

fruit. 11,5 Vol.-%, screwcap, €€<br />
