Donnhoff Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling Spatlese 2013

For over 100 years, the Hermannshöhle has been revered as the Nahe‘s top-ranked site and the benchmark by which all other vineyards in the region are judged. It takes its name from a small mine, or “Höhle”, in the middle of the hillside. “Hermann” is derived from Hermes, the Roman god of messengers and travelers, and the name likely hints at an ancient place of worship once located here. This site faces due south and lies 130 –175 m above sea level. Its soils are primarily blackish gray slate mixed with extrusive igneous rock, porphyry and limestone. For generations, this marvelous site has shaped our expectations for what fine wines from the Nahe can achieve.

Country: Germany

Product Type: Wine

Wine Colour: White

Grape: Riesling

Volume: 75cl

Producer Profile

If you are fortunate enough to visit Dönnhoff estate and taste wines with Helmut and Cornelius Dönnhoff, to watch Helmut is a good way to identify the quality of the wine other than the brilliance on the palate. If he is pleased with the wine there is a twinkle in his eye and a modest almost indiscernible smile crosses his lips. There is no doubt that as Cornelius steps into his father’s shoes the estate will maintain its position as one of the finest and most followed in Germany.
