Vintage 2008 | Restaurant Hohenzollern in Bad Neuenahr lies beautiful on a vineyard mountain overlooking the village; it does have a enchanting wine list with 22 pages covering Germany, but also 16 pages rest of the world. There are ripened wines from many regions. A 16 y old Zind Humbrecht Riesling is an opportunity not to miss. Gold coloured, fine smell with some almonds, a lot of minerals and enormous amount of butter and butterscotch. Wel balanced wine with tension. Paired with sea bass and curry shrimps.

Drinking so well. 12 year old with good fruit and acidity balance. Decant.

Restrained yet forceful. A powerhouse of minerality and acidic drive. Fruit in the background, a real ensemble beauty. Oh, and paired exquisitely with hapu upu'u, fresh turmeric, coconut milk, ginger, purple sweet potato awesomeness.
