Tasting Notes
-
Goedhuis, December 2021
The talented Donnhoff team know how to make a good Riesling. This 2020 is stunningly pure, loaded with ripe peach and cooler citrus flavours such as lime and grapefruit. It delights you with its crisp, mouth-watering acidity and delicious mineral notes. An incredibly elegant and brilliant value bottling that is without a doubt one of our go-to drinking wines.

Jancis Robinson, August 2021,
Score: 16Quite reticent on the nose with just a hint of yellow fruit. Bone dry on the palate with notes of crisp firm peach and green fruit, accompanied by assertive acidity. Drink 2021-2025.

Producer
Helmut Dönnhoff

Dönnhoff is one the best producers in all of Germany and the estate is arguably the most famous outside of the Mosel valley. The family domaine dates from 1750 and is comprised of 28-hectares in the Nahe, a region located southeast of the Mosel. Its climate unexpectedly evokes the Mediterranean, and its soils are comparable to the Mosel with the addition of clay, though not as steep. The combination of these 2 elements seems to give the best of both worlds - the focus and minerality of the Mosel as well as the fleshy fruit of Germany's warmer regions. The vines have been passed on from father to son to grandson and now the fourth generation holds the reins. Cornelius Dönnhoff took over from his father Helmut in 2007 after 8 years of training. Cornelius continues his father's natural (and perfectionsit) winemaking philiopshy, producing wines of extraordinary power, concentration and complexity. Spellbinding and thought-provoking, they are worth discovering.
Region
Nahe
Nahe is located to the south east of the Mosel. Its climate unexpectedly evokes the Mediterranean, and its slate soils are comparable to the Mosel with the addition of clay, though not as steep. The combination of these two elements seems to give the best of both worlds - the focus and minerality of the Mosel as well as the fleshy fruit of Germany's warmer regions.
