Christmann's iconic 2014 Konigsbacher Idig Riesling trocken GG is pure, intense, fresh, and displays chalk and lemon flavors on the concentrated, complex nose. Full-bodied and round on the palate, very elegant, intense and firmly structured, but also full of finesse and a certain lightness, this is great dry Riesling with a very long, complex finish. Again, like in 2013, a great character and among the finest dry German Rieslings of the vintage. Just to see how it feels, I blended the Idig with the Königsbacher, which comes from the lower part if the Idig, and the wine was still terrific in its purity and terroir expression -- even fresher and leaner. - Stephan Reinhardt
