2008 Dönnhoff Oberhäuser Brücke Riesling Spätlese
Dönnhoff
This site directly by the river is exclusively owned by the Dönnhoff estate. It features ancient rock with clay slate bedrock, covered by a layer of loess loam and has a perfect microclimate for great noble sweet Riesling wines. The vines are between 25 and 35 years old and yield rought 45hl/ha. 100% selective hand harvest. The musts are fermented and the wines matured in stainless steel vats. This is a Riesling with spicy ripeness and intense fruit. It's very complex with a wonderful balance between ripe fruit sweetness and classy acidity.

Creamy, quite explosively mineral on the nose. Lovely purity and history in this wine. So communicative. Everything in balance. Just wonderful stuff. Not that sweet. You're not really conscious of the sugar level because it just seems to be in balance.
