Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 93
"Green tea, sage, musky narcissus, white peach, grapefruit, passion fruit, and pineapple mingle on the nose as well as on the seductively silken yet brightly citric palate of Donnhoff's 2009 Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling Grosses Gewachs. There is a striking sense of clarity and shimmering interchange of fruit and mineral elements here as well as infectious saliva-inducement. Re-tasting this blind in November I was struck by its brightness of fruit and the extent of its resemblance to a great Sancerre, a comparison which I realize may draw the ire of purists. This will be worth following for a dozen or more years, and its complexity may ultimately rival that of the today also more ingratiating Dellchen."

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
