Dönnhoff Felsenberg GG 2023
43.98₣ (Exc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Switzerland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2023 Schlossböckelheimer Felsenberg Riesling trocken GG is beautifully pure, clear and bright or even coolish on the deep and complex nose that is still remarkably discreet but refined for this warm, volcanic terroir and offers elegant notes of melting stones and domestic seed fruits. Round, refined and elegant on the palate, this is a generous, juicy and fruity Riesling with fine tannins and a long, intense, spicy and aromatic, finely saline and mineral finish. This is a mouth-filling, complex and textured Riesling with crunchy tannins on the finish. It's a superb 2023 that should develop beautifully over the years in the bottle. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in August and October 2024.

Description
Dönnhoff Felsenberg GG is characterised by its deep connection with the terroir of the Nahe region in Germany.
Winemaking
Made from the Riesling grape variety. The grapes come from vineyards that are approximately 25-30 years old, which guarantees maturity and complexity in the fruit. Harvesting is 100% selective and manual, ensuring that only the best grapes are used in the winemaking process. Once harvested, the grapes go through a fermentation process and then the wine is aged on the lees in stainless steel tanks as well as in traditional oak barrels, which gives the wine a balanced structure and a rich aromatic palette.
Taste
It has a pale, bright yellow colour. On the nose, it is discreet, but with spicy notes and delicate fruit. On the palate, it is round, smooth and balanced, with a very mild acidity. Its minerality stands out, with an earthy touch in the aftertaste. It is a dry Riesling of great complexity, with a crystalline minerality marked by silex. The finish is long, dominated by notes of crushed stone. It is a wine that, although it can be enjoyed in its youth, has great ageing potential, and can evolve and improve over the years in the bottle.
