2011 Dönnhoff Hermannshöhle Riesling Großes Gewächs - Germany, Nahe (2/4/2024)
2011 does not get a lot of love from German Riesling fans, but it’s a fantastic dry wine vintage. This Dönnhoff GG is just another example of the warmth of 2011 bringing an extra dash of mid-palate depth to what is always a delicious wine. From the first sip it was the weight, the presence that drew me in. Certainly the fruit and acidity were present and in harmony, but the way the wine held the stage with its gravitas kept me coming back for another encore. My only regret was this was my last bottle.
