This is an endlessly extraordinary wine, an epitome of perfection in dry Riesling. Made from Donnhoff's best vineyard, the Hermannshohle, this wine has the "Grosses Gewachs" designation, which means it is a Great Growth, a Grand Cru for a German wine. The aroma fills the glass with rich pie spices, minerals, and honey. On the palate, the wine is full and weighty while at the same time elegant and silky - a fantastic mouthfeel and flavor that goes on and on. This is an extraordinary wine, and one that should be experienced by everyone, not just Riesling lovers. It's a wine that would pull at the hearts of lovers of white Burgundy the most.
