2019 Hermannshöhle Riesling Grosses Gewächs, Dönnhoff, Nahe

2019 Hermannshöhle Riesling Grosses Gewächs, Dönnhoff, Nahe

Arguably Dönnhoff’s greatest vineyard, and, indeed, the greatest vineyard of the whole of the Nahe. Here, the vines are up to 65 years old, and face due south. The resulting wine in 2019 is a tour de force, with incredible power and unbelievable freshness. This is a true Grand Cru of Germany. Astonishing.

Tasting notes

The 2019 Riesling GG Hermannshöhle offers a pure, intense, complex and flinty bouquet with dashes of lemon juice and crushed stones. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, intense and salty-mineral Riesling with great finesse, tension, balance and site expression. The finish is very long, salty and tight yet stimulating in its bright and precise nature. A fantastic Hermannshöhle! Tasted as a sample in Bremen, April 2020.
