  December 24, 2023 - Great fruit and minerality, excellent balance and purity, definitely one of my preferred GG!

  April 1, 2023 - Somehow I do no manage to become friends with Wittmann. Yesterday I drank its Riesling/Sylvaner vin nature 2020. I guess this should be one of the best German vins natures; isn't Wittmann one of Germany's leading producers? Well, I did not like it: no complexity, no minerality, etc: an indifferent wine. AS I do not want to be overcritical of Wittmann, I opened its Aulerde GG 2018 today, expecting a good, perhaps great wine. I was not to be: class yes, greatness no. Disappointing.

  December 2, 2020 - Great balance between minerality and fruit! Clearly (too) young - was much better on day 2. Needs decant if opened now.

  October 31, 2020 - Three glasses of wine at what is possibly the best wine bar in Northern Europe (Ica Liljeholmen): Lots of tropical fruit on the nose, the bottle had been coravined but had 2/3 left in it, we had a glass each at Ica Liljeholmen, perhaps the best wine bar in Northern Europe.
  
  This is a great wine for understanding how minerality can add to a sense of freshness and how ripe, bold textured, fruity riesling can hide some acidity at first. Not the longest or most complex of wines at this stage. Will hold my own bottle for a couple of more years I think.

  August 22, 2020 - Nokså stum på duft rett fra flaska, men gir litt eple. Med luft kommer litt tropisk frukt. Frisk i munnen, med ren, klar syrestruktur som gir en mineralsk følelse. Etterhvert grapefruktjuice, men ikke veldig bittert. Deilige reine smaker, men ikke veldig komplisert.
