Chardonnay Knewitz 2023 (750ML)

94 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "What an elegant and polished chardonnay this is. Germany is now producing wines that can match Burgundian village wines, but at a fraction of the price. I love the silky texture, and the integration of fruit and oak is spot-on, right through the long, delicately chalky finish. From organically grown grapes. Matured in 30% new and 70% used barrique oak casks. Drink from release." 02/25

93 Points, Anne Krebiehl, Vinous: "The 2023 Chardonnay is from Knewitz's premier limestone sites, namely Goldberg, Honigberg and Eselspfad. This was made exclusively in oak, of which about a third was new. A verve of green walnuts adds a salty, savory allure. The 2023 is so fresh and fluid, with lovely fill and texture over a chalky backdrop. What beautiful resonance and length this has. (Bone-dry)." 07/25
