Hands down the best site in Nahe. Sandstone, volcanic debris and then slate. Crystalline. Resonant. Helmut and Cornelius form the dream team. — 9 years ago

This is Claus Preisingers "Erdeluftgrasund reben" Blaufränkisch which he presented on the RAW fair in Berlin yesterday. A wine with a lot of depth and structure. — 10 years ago

quite frankly it's not an insider tip to present helmut / cornelius dönnhoff's jewels, but this (in austria) quite underrated wine may be one of the best of the kabinett vintage 2013! the acidity vibrantly merges with the 40g plus residual sugar (43,9 to be very precise); presenting stone fruit, touch of exotic fruits as melon and mango, citrus cest, white blossoms and salty finish - easy going and for contemplation at the same time. you wanna DRINK it - touché!

the recommendation for asian / fruit and herb driven cuisine is obvious... — 10 years ago

Claus Preisinger, young biodynamic winemaker from Austria. Expressive 50/50 zweigelt and blaufrankisch from Austria, supple like merlot, light like Pinot noir. Light chill, perfect summer red. Great value. — 9 years ago

What I do mostly appreciate regarding Riesling is the marked tipicity of this noble grape who taste so different in each wine region or area of production throughout Germany: Nahe, Pfalz, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Baden, Württemberg, Rheingau as the one we've got in here which in spite has been opened two days before, shoot out on your face such a crispness, a very fine zest of rust that refrigerate the tongue.. warming-up the heart! http://www.weingut-hanka.de/ — 10 years ago

Сверхлегкий физз, мутный темнозолотой цвет. Лежавшие яблоки, благородный сероводород, известняк, крапива, апельсин, можжевельник. Супер приятно и вкусно, но нет динамики и драмы. Иначе был бы идеал. — 9 years ago

This is extremely pure and concentrated Riesling from one of its most famous ambassadors, Helmut Dönnhoff. Super ripe yet purest Riesling flavors on the nose, think of raisins and honey and a touch of pink grapefruit. On the palate this 6 vol-% ice wine is thick and oily textured and very sweet due to the super concentration of 2010. However, this all is beautifully structured by the piquant acidity which both give this wine vibrancy and an eternal life. 0.375 l cost approx. 100 Euro. World class Riesling. Drink now or better in 40, 50, or 80 years. (Sorry but it's Riesling...) — 12 years ago
