Donnhoff - Riesling Estate 2021

Donnhoff Description

The idea here is to make a village wine, basically, though it’s sold and marketed as a Gutswein or Estate bottled basic wine. The Estate wine combines the two major soils that dominate the holdings for the estate, giving the drinker a look into what Dönnhoff is all about. The basic wine is a calling card and thus Cornelius wants to make statement.

The geology of the middle Nahe is notably shaped by its eons-old clay slate formations and rich volcanic soils. The concentration of porphyry and melaphyre stone in and around the old Oberhausen vineyards – Kieselberg and Felsenberg, help provide the perfect berry base for Gutsriesling.

James Suckling: 91 Points

So juicy and yet so,filigree, this is a wonderful introduction to the light side of German riesling. So many white flowers that they fall out of the bouquet, the touch of natural grape sweetness accentuating this beautifully. Long, clean finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification.
