2020 Donnhoff Riesling QbA (fruity style)

Media Reviews

Stephan Reinhardt

Sourced in Oberhausen and Niederhausen (so from weathered slate and volcanic stones), the Donnhoff estate 2020 Riesling is pure and refreshingly mineral on the nose that shows clear, bright and spicy fruit with crunchy slate aromas. Virtually a classic Kabinett, this is a round, only gently sweet Riesling with clear lemon fruit, a silky texture and very elegant, ripe and piquant acidity. This is a gorgeously fruity and stimulating Riesling to start with after a long night if you don`t have fresh fruit on the table. "We have to be careful that it doesn`t get too good for the price range," says Helmut Donnhoff, and he is right, because this is a Nahe classic or, as Donnhoff puts it, `This is the light, pure optimism, a children`s choir. That is joie de vivre.` 10.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021. 92 points

Even with information as sparse as Riesling 2020 you can be rest-assured of a good wine when it comes from the house of Donnhoff. It’s their so-called entry estate wine, not quite dry, produced in the style of a light and lively Kabinett with the merest hint of residual sugar. Minerality takes the back seat for once, letting the palate enjoy gentle notes of yellow fruit and a tasteful floral touch, backed by totally refreshing acidity. 16.5 points
