Half Bottles Niederhäuser Herrmannshöhle Auslese - 2002 - Hermann Dönnhoff
Ref: A995402
In conveniently-sized half-bottles this is the tremendous Niederhausen Hermanshölle Auslese which is quite simply one of the most hedonistic Auslesen that we have tried - very pure, intense and sweet but is quite exquisitely balanced with honeyed, spicy dried stone-fruit flavours. Drink now until 2012.

The river Nahe (which gives its name to this extremely attractive, rural region) flows north out of the Hunstrück hills and joins the Rhein at Bingen. The best vineyard sites (Niederhausen, Schlossböckelheim, Oberhäusen and Norheim) are situated around the spa town of Bad Kreuznach and the best wines have a full, pure and clean grapey taste with a fine, balancing acidity and a hint of aromatic, minerally fruit.

The Dönnhof estate has been in the same hands since 1750 and Helmut Dönnhof is undoubtedly one of the Nahe’s (and probably one of Germany’s) best producers, making Rieslings from 15 hectares of prime vineyard sites with a wonderful combination of finesse, fragrance and racey fruitiness. In 1999, he won the coveted Gault Millau‘ Winemaker of the Year’ award and his 1998’s were amongst some of the finest German wines we have tasted.
