    July 13, 2022 - Subtle nose - floral and peaches? Honeyed Apple with a striking lemon and lime acidity. Real sweetness but so balanced by the acidity. Showing a lovely complexity and different layers of notes and flavours Inc some tertiary gun flint. Still young!

    Very good but not as sensational compared to the first time I had this.

    May 9, 2022 - Excellent showing here. Beautiful nose of minerals, mint, lemon. The wine stayed light and elegant, my kind of semi-sweet wine that can accompany an apero or a dessert without feeling heavy. Doennhoff delivers, what’s new.

    December 29, 2021 - Pale yellow. Nose clearly a Riesling fruity, passion fruit, hint of honey and hint of petrol. On palate wonderfully balanced. Lemon and lime acidity balanced against honeyed tropical fruit inc peach, mango, pineapple etc. Subtle but present Riesling minerality. Great tang to it.

    Real purity and with such good balance including throughout the lengthy finish. Feels very harmonious and tremendous quality.

    Still young and will mature for many years but drinking well right now too. Less "slap in the face" concentration compared to the 2009 Eiswein from the same vineyard but has the same real purity.

    Probably 95% of the concentration and wonder of that Eiswein - considering this is one tenth of the price, this represents astonishing value.

    November 17, 2021 - Young fresh and exciting Riesling. Serious harmony already. Can't wait to see where this goes over time. Delicious.

    July 31, 2021 - Beautiful yellow gold color. Nicely balanced. Lemon lime on the palate with just the right amount of sweetness and minerality. Bracing shot of acidity on the finish. My remaining bottles won’t make it to 2044. Bravo!!!
