Manni Nossing - Müller-Thurgau Sass Rigais 2022 (750ml)

Vinous 94 points

"Alpine and airy, like a fresh burst of chilling wind blowing through a thicket of pines, the 2022 Müller-Thurgau Sass Rigais comes to life in the glass. Its aromatics unfold slowly yet hold the attention firm, as hints of chlorophyll and mint complicate crisp green apple and stone dust. Deeply textural, this opens with a balanced inner sweetness quickly contrasted by saline minerals and a core of brisk acidity as tart orchard fruits cascade throughout. The 2022 finishes long and staining, with a youthful concentration and salty intensity that lingers on. In a word, breathtaking. "
