The 2022 A. Christmann Idig Riesling Grosses Gewächs is a benchmark dry Riesling from the renowned Idig vineyard in Germany’s Pfalz region. Produced by the acclaimed A. Christmann estate, this Grosses Gewächs showcases the precision, depth and vineyard expression that have established Idig as one of Germany’s leading Riesling sites.
On the palate, concentrated flavours of lime, grapefruit and ripe stone fruit are layered with complex mineral notes and subtle savoury nuances. Vibrant acidity provides structure and energy, while the wine’s impressive texture and depth create a powerful yet finely balanced profile. The finish is long, dry and remarkably persistent, reflecting both the quality of the vineyard and the pedigree of the vintage.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding choice for customers seeking a world-class dry Riesling with complexity, structure and exceptional aging potential. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar confidently over the next 15–20 years as additional layers of mineral, savoury and tertiary character develop. Pairs beautifully with lobster, grilled seafood, roast pork, veal, poultry dishes and refined vegetable-based cuisine.
