Ripe peach and apricot with a touch of juicy citrus too. Rich texture and good acid for the vintage.

Just coming out of its shell. Beautiful adolescent #Donnhoff. Ripe but balanced with superb acidity. This will drink well for 20 years at least.

Delicious, pure Riesling notes of ripe apple, peach and spring flowers. Rich creamy modest sweetness.

Pretty amazing for the vintage; still light in color with nice aromatics and juicy acidity. Well done, Helmut!

opulent and exotic but enough acidity to lift the weight. modestly sweet and lush, glazed fruit and spice lead to weathered volcanic minerality. gorgeous and alive, though time to start drinking 🍑🍍🍯🫚⛰️

Nice Riesling from Nahe. Fresh and full of lively fruit despite being from the 2003 vintage. Sweet but not overly sweet, and balanced with acidity in the finish. Good on its own or with Chinese food.
