    April 28, 2021 - Much better compared to the last one some months ago: fresh citrus, floral notes, hay, some tart, high salinity, good length, mouth coating, very good showing tonight.

    December 23, 2020 - Fruity, salty minerality, quite large, only middle length, a bit of missing tension (the same with Dönnhoffs GG Delchen of the same year).

    November 6, 2020 - Der beste FB von Helmut so dar!!! Brauchte 1 h Luft um sich zu finden. Anfangs noch mit einer merklichen Süße!! Nach 3 h Luft war das letzte Glas mal wieder das schönste! Tolle Harmonie aus tropischer Frucht, einer leichten grasigen Würze , einer wunderschönen „felsigen“ Mineralität und dieser unterschwelligen leichten Honigsüße (aber nicht im Sinne von Restsüsse!). Jetzt wohl auf dem Höhepunkt!? Ganz toll!!! Trinken!

    (Dönnhoff Felsenberg Riesling Grosses Gewächs) ($63.00) Enveloping, smoky, quietly grandiose fragrances, animal, sweetly farm-y, rising dough; all atmosphere and mood, a circular embrace, not a direct attack. In other words: Dönnhoff. ++
