Dönnhoff Nahe Riesling QbA Trocken 2024

A dry Riesling from the Nahe, made from grapes grown on relatively young vines across several estate vineyards. Fermented and matured partly in stainless steel and partly in large German oak casks, it is an elegant, pervasive white of refined quality. Medium-bodied and tending to light, it works well as an aperitif and with smoked salmon. On the nose it shows citrus, white peach, fresh white flowers, stony mineral notes, chives and fresh ginger. The palate is dry, with a youthful, tart acidity balanced by a faintly sweet aromatic depth. It finishes persistent and savoury.
