Guess which WWA wine is described as “staggeringly serious” by Matthew Jukes?

Matthew wrote a beautiful, extremely complimentary review for Money Week following the tasting and we just had to share it with you…….!
Pechstein was my pick of the bunch not least because the nose was so captivating that the world became a blur and I went temporarily mute and deaf as I waded knee deep in this glorious wine. With only 6g/l of residual sugar in this breathtaking creation, this is a bone dry Riesling and it is this vitality and nervy edge of minerality, which follows the cavalcade of lime and blossom, which shocks the senses to attention. This is a young wine and I am certain that it will age incrementally for well over a decade. Food wise, drink it with the finest sushi, impossibly tender fruits de mer or the most expensive manchego you can find. This is a staggeringly serious wine and it contains more beauty within its masterful core than any white I have tasted this year.”
