Dönnhoff - Kreuznacher Kahlenberg Riesling Trocken Erste Lage 2021

The Wine Advocate: "The 2021 Kreuznacher Kahlenberg Riesling trocken is clear, bright and delicate on the nose that shows spicy fruit with red cherry and floral as well as flinty and some underwood or herbal aromas. Intense and fleshy on the palate, this is an elegant, piquant and mouth-filling, juicy Riesling with lemon bitters on the crispy finish. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022."

James Suckling: "This may not be the biggest single-vineyard dry riesling in Germany (other regions than the Nahe have a big advantage on this point), but the fruit-salad of aromas, tarragon freshness and lively citrusy acidity build a very satisfying harmony. Then the zesty acidity and light-footed finish pull you back for more. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold."
