Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 94

"Fresh citrus fruits, spring onions, and spices are found in the nose of the 2001 Spatlese Oberhauser Brucke. A medium bodied complex, highly expressive wine, its satin-textured core reveals perfumed white fruits, green onions, minerals, and verbena in its rich yet crystalline character. Helmut Donnhoff approached the 2001 vintage much as Reggie Jackson would have reacted to facing a fast ball down the middle thrown by a Junior Varsity pitcher in the bottom of the ninth of the last game of the World Series. Donnhoff hit a towering, grand slam home run of majestic proportions. His 2001s are extraordinary." -Robert Parker

"Full, tropical fruit nose with even a hint of coconut. Full-on rumbustious impact from this wine that is virtually of Auslese ripeness though is far from subtle."

Wine Spectator

WS 95

"Round and very supple, with a vibrant structure supporting the nectarine, green tea and lemon verbena flavors. Great clarity and expression with a long, long mineral kaleidoscope aftertaste. It really stays firm and focused on the palate."

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!
