  Wine of the month and perhaps beyond, wow. The clear color completely caught me completely off guard with tidal force that hit my tongue a few days ago. The essence of a pure green apple concentrated into 4 oz in my glass was hard to articulate and with such grace and lightness of touch. Blows away my “Prum paints in water color / Donnhoff in oil postulation – This is Monet at apex or pick your artist, I took the obvious route 😊 – I literally just kept staring at my glass wondering how good this was. Oberhauser Brucke is rapidly becoming my favorite site n the Donnhoff portfolio. This score is conservative, I can see this getting even better in time. Clear the runway. Absolutely enchanting

  From a 375 ml. Light golden yellow in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of yellow peaches, apricots & apples with overtones of floral notes of honeysuckle, minerals, ginger, spices & a hint of Botrytized honey in the background. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty, ripe fruit flavors of stone fruits of yellow peaches & apricots & citrus notes of lemons/lime with minerals, spices & honey. Excellent balance between the sweetness & firm acidity. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present but will certainly develop further with additional aging at which time it should rate even higher (95+). [A.P. Nr. 7753010 23 19; Alc. 7.5%] An absolutely amazing wine.

  Simply outstanding in its youth. Super fine. Will age wonderfully. Best to wait at least 10 years. The bottle we had from 1996 at the same time showed its potential!

  Simply outstanding - just tried at very young stage but the potential seems to be huge.

  Ferocious acidity together with the right stuffing. An excellent wine, but in the next decade. HOLD.
