The Oberhäuser Brücke is a site made for noble rot, and this 2025 Goldkapsel in 375ml is a good way to see what that means. The Brücke is the family's own monopole. At 1.1 hectares it is one of the smallest protected sites on the Nahe, and it sits on the valley floor, opposite the old Royal Bavarian Luitpold Bridge that gives it its name. Cool air flows down into the valley at night and the days stay cooler than on the steep slopes. Meanwhile, being so close to the water encourages noble rot. In 2025 that meant ripe grapes with very fine botrytis, picked on the same day as the estate's Spätlese and Grosses Gewächs from this site and then fermented and aged in stainless steel. The result is a nobly sweet Riesling at just 7.5% alcohol that tastes precise rather than syrupy. A small bottle shared after dinner is exactly how a wine like this should be enjoyed. Serve well chilled.

More about Donnhoff

If you love Riesling, you know the name Dönnhoff. If you don't love Riesling-- yet-- Dönnhoff will teach you why the grape inspires such passion.

Dönnhoff is the greatest estate in the Nahe and one of the best in all of Germany. The family has had four generations to dive deep into their terroir and perfect their winemaking. Their top wines are long-lived and collectible.

That terroir is, of course, key. The Nahe has the most varied soils (including, especially, different kinds of volcanic soil) of any German region, as well as a climate that ranges from very cold high-elevation sites to pockets of Mediterranean warmth. This gives Dönnhoff a painter’s palette of flavors and textures from which to craft a perfect wine.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Foie gras torchon with stone-fruit chutney; Roquefort or Stilton with walnuts; tarte Tatin; mango sticky rice; passion fruit pavlova.

Tasting Profile

Clear, intense aromas of passion fruit and mango. Nobly sweet, with a compact, concentrated and precise palate, light at 7.5% alcohol. Very fine mineral acidity keeps it lively, and the finish is long, energetic and distinctly salty.

WINE GUIDES

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!
