Wine from Nahe

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Coolish, very clear, subtle but multi-layered on the highly elegant, finesse-full and flinty nose starts the 2014 Riesling Dellchen GG. This is a full-bodied, pure, very elegant, highly complex and frisky Riesling of...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: The 2014 Riesling Kabinett Oberhäuser Leistenberg is cool, fresh and just ripe on the pure and elegant nose. Gentle and smooth, but also piquant and salty on the palate, this is a light and fruity, well balanced Kabinett...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: From a steep, south-facing vineyard on red sandstone soils, the 2015 (Roxheimer) Höllenpfad Riesling Trocken opens with warm and generous yellow apple fruit, but also a coolish and piquant sand stone expression with spicy...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: A tang of salty minerals extends throughout this sublime spätlese. Intensely fruity, its sweet white-peach and mango flavors seem to fall on the tongue in crystalline shards. Light-footed and vibrantly acidic, it's a...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The 2014 Riesling Trocken Vulkangestein is sourced from younger (30- to 40-year-old) plots of the grands crus Stromberg and Felsenberg; the grapes were both picked a week earlier than the Grosses Gewächs Rieslings. The...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: 94+ The 2014 Riesling Auslese Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle GK has been selected from all over the Hermannshöhle vineyard and offers a very fine, subtle botrytis bouquet intermixed with pure and flinty stone aromas. This...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Intriguingly musky and subtly fungal as well as piercing in its evocation of distilled pit fruits and botanicals, the nose of Donnhoff’s 2011 Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling Beerenauslese – which was picked alongside...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: The 2015 Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Beerenauslese is a positive selection of the finest botrytis berries (with and without rot) that were harvested for the Auslese. The wine opens with the same flinty...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: 92+ The 2015 Oberhäuser Brücke Riesling Spätlese is clear, fresh and coolish, almost reductive on the very precise nose. This is a mouth-filling Spätlese that is round and generous on the palate, with a lush fruit...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: ”‘You with your (expletive) Eiswein!’ Gabi told me when we left these grapes hanging,” relates Donnhoff, and in fact his 2011 Oberhauser Brucke Riesling Eiswein was another of those that threatened to disrupt the...

View From The Cellar, 96 points: The Dönnhoff family picked two small lots of Eiswein this year, one on the 9th of December and the other on the 13th, and Helmut Dönnhoff decided that they would be better blended together to make one bottling, rather...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2013 Riesling Spatlese Norheimer Kirschheck offers very fine raisin and grey slate aromas on the nose, richer and riper fruit than the Leistenberg Kabinett because this is a south-facing site and –– a Spätlese...
