Description
David Schildknecht: White peach with hints of spruce resin, scrub,
and quarry dust in the nose of Donnhoff's 2008 Niederhauser
Hermannshohle Riesling Grosses Gewachs prepare the way for a subtly
oily-textured, sappy, peachy and resinous palate concentration
accented by grapefruit peel and white pepper. This clings and
invigorates with dramatic grip and energy while remaining coolly
herbal and mineral, a mounting sense of salinity drawing out your
saliva. As it opens to the air, a classic sense of layering of
mineral, fruit, herb and spice becomes more clearly visible, but a
dynamic sense of oscillation of flavors also remains. Look for this
profoundly complex, intriguing, reserved yet startlingly powerful
Riesling to evolve fascinatingly for 10-12 years.
