WINE DESCRIPTION
Dönnhoff Riesling is a highly sought-after wine produced by the renowned German winemaker Helmut Dönnhoff. The wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the Nahe appellation, which is known for its steep, rocky vineyards that produce wines with exceptional minerality. Dönnhoff's vineyards are carefully tended to by hand, with a focus on sustainable farming practices. The winemaking process is meticulous, with a gentle pressing of the grapes and a slow, cool fermentation to preserve the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. The resulting wine is a classic expression of Riesling, with bright acidity, vibrant fruit flavors, and a long, mineral-driven finish.
