Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 23, 2022 - #15-06, 7.5% abv. From half-bottle. Maybe a smidgen more advanced than I remember this wine being, but I think it's also been apparently exactly three years since I had this last and memory is such a fickle thing... I read that I wrote previously that I didn't find any/much botrytis previously, but that certainly doesn't seem to be the case today. There's definitely some of the marmalade/spice notes from botrytis on the nose, as well as some poached pears. There's not much sign of apples (malic acid) though. On the palate, this is sweet and mildly creamy, and while the acidity's there to counterbalance it out, it's not the sort of racy, prominent acidity of Mosel riesling. An archetypal bottle of Dönnhoff.
