Score 90/100 · Drink 2024-2032, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Oct 2024

Dönnhoff's 2023 Tonschiefer Riesling trocken is clear and vegetal on the intense, fresh and spicy nose. The charming fruit is only expressed on the palate, which is round, lush, fruity and elegant and has fine, elegant acidity, with a clear, fresh and savory finish. This is a serious, good Riesling from the Nahe that was bottled under screw cap with 12% stated alcohol. Tasted in October 2024.

The vibrant aromas of white peaches and white blossoms are married to an intense slatey minerality in this sleek and precise dry Nahe riesling. Quite some structure, although it is barely medium-bodied. Wonderful stony intensity at the very long, bright finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

The 2023 Riesling Tonschiefer was picked mainly in the Oberhäuser Leistenberg (80%) and a neighboring site, both on Tonschiefer or shale, plus younger vines from the Klamm and the Hermannshöhle. It is made in stainless steel only. The nose is shy but shows a savory, herbal note of fern, tender lemons and a certain stoniness. The palate is beautifully restrained, crystal-clear, stony and pervaded by clear-cut lemon brightness, finishing bone dry with a touch of ripe lemon zest. Lovely and elegant. (Bone-dry)

Gutswein. Tank sample. Smoky with hints of white flowers. Ripe grapefruit, pear, kumquat. Edgy and elegant, with a zesty, full-bodied and finishing roundness. (PS)
