Weingut Dönnhoff : Riesling Trocken 2022

Very spicy for a dry Nahe riesling with plenty of mandarin orange and peach stone fruit. Strikingly dry and firm with ample structure, then a long zesty and mouthwatering finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

The 2022 Riesling was harvested in the lateral valley of Oberhausen, on south-east-facing slopes of volcanic origin and in the younger vines of the top south-facing sites. It was fermented in stainless steel only. It opens with opulent, ripe yellow stone fruit, pear peel and initially, even a tropical overtone of pineapple, which tones down again. The slender, light palate is of equal fruitiness, bright, very juicy, tapering towards vivid, lemony, citric freshness on the dry finish. (Bone-dry)

A wonderfully intense bouquet with a clear and pleasing focus on the fruity expression of Riesling. Inviting notes of nectarine, apricot and lemongrass. Supple on the palate, the wine is fresh and precise, well supported by its structure and delicate bitterness on the finish. A flavorful, mouthwatering wine.
