Dönnhoff's 2023 Riesling Trocken (dry) represents the dry expression of their Riesling-focused philosophy. Trocken (dry) indicates complete fermentation with minimal residual sugar, contrasting with the Kabinett and Spätlese styles that retain more sweetness.

At three years old, the wine shows the kind of mineral focus and dryness that comes from Nahe's complex terroir. While research data is limited for this specific wine, the Dönnhoff approach of hand-harvesting and immediate pressing ensures clarity and precision. This is a wine for those seeking dry, mineral-driven German Riesling—pure expression of the vineyard without sweetness or oak influence. The 2023 vintage was warm but balanced, creating wines with good ripeness and acidity. The diverse soils of Nahe create layered minerality and complexity. A benchmark expression of German Riesling dry style.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 96
"The 2023 Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling trocken GG opens deep, pure, intense and stony on the nose that is, to be honest, much more sophisticated than the Brücke GG. The wine is finely juicy as well as savory on the palate, probably not bone dry in terms of analysis but always in tension and never settling on the palate, as if it was just an idea of Riesling and not its materialization. This Hermannshöhle is not a cave (which it is only named after) but a bright Riesling ray to the heavens, a lasting flash of lightning from a thunderstorm that cannot be disliked or remain undrunk, even today. If you need a salty and spicy yet always seductively round palate-tickler now, please go ahead. But those who like to let the wine mature will not lose out. 13% stated alcohol." -Stephan Reinhardt

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!
