Keller Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling GG 2023 is a benchmark dry Riesling from Germany’s Rheinhessen, marrying crystalline precision with profound site expression. Produced by Weingut Keller, long regarded by leading critics as one of the region’s reference estates, it is sourced from the Kirchspiel vineyard in Westhofen, a celebrated limestone-influenced site prized for its cool, tensile style. Made in the Grosses Gewächs (GG) tradition, the wine is fermented and matured with a deliberately hands-off, reductive approach that privileges purity, extract and mineral drive over overt fruit sweetness. The 2023 captures Kirchspiel’s signature spectrum of citrus peel, white peach and herbal lift, underpinned by a saline, chalky core and a long, tightly coiled finish. For connoisseurs, Keller Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling GG offers immediate detail yet rewards extended cellaring, gaining depth and smoky complexity with time. |

Wine Advocate (91)Lime, apple, and grapefruit with a strong influence of their skins and pips renders Keller's 2011 Westhofener Morstein Riesling Grosses Gewachs a remarkably pithy and piquant mouthful. Density and sheer persistence this also has in spades - it's almost muscle-bound - but I'll be very interested to see whether it picks up refinement, differentiation and, for want of a better word (one Keller himself favors), elegance over the course of coming decade. There is an austerely stony undertone to this entire performance; and one that didn't dissipate in a bottle that had been opened for a day. (Incidentally, this is the first vintage of Morstein to be supplemented by a portion of sixty-year-old vines that Keller recently acquired and grafted over to Riesling.) |

Vinous (93)Piquancy of apple pip, peach kernel and walnut are already signaled in the penetratingly high-toned nose, and when allied to chalky, stony, iodine notes make for a pithy, austere sort of palate concentration. There is an expansively mouthfilling as well as palpably extract-rich impression but at the same time generous juiciness of lemon and grapefruit, apple and white peach, plus remarkable lift and animation that follow into a vibrantly sustained, focused finish. I have the impression of looking at Keller’s blueprint for what this wine is intended to become, but the blueprint itself is mighty impressive. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (94)The 2016 Syrah Deconstructed Lake District Cartref SH22 has a lovely bouquet of brambly red fruit, slightly confit yet fresh. Subtle Provençal herbs, marmalade and fennel scents become ferrous with time. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy opening, crisp acidity and bright red fruit. The slightly medicinal, camphor-tinged finish is almost Pinot-like and maintains delineation. Excellent. Tasted blind at the South Africa Ten Years On tasting in London. |

Vinous (95)The 2021 Chardonnay Clonal Selection Elgin is simply one of the best South African articulations of this grape variety that you will find. The nose is just perfectly controlled, quite Burgundian in style. It plays with a very subtle reduction, underneath which lies Golden Delicious, hints of beeswax and crushed stone. The palate has exquisite balance and depth, with notes of orange pith and grapefruit that dovetail into a slightly richer, creamier-textured finish, maintaining the salinity that makes you beg for more. Brilliant. |
