"Loads of fresh herbs intermingled with a myriad of spices are found in the aromatic profile of the 2003 Riesling Spatlese Niederhauser Hermannshohle. A bold, sultry wine, it unleashes powerful waves of pears, candied apples, spices, melon balls, raspberries, and red currants that conquer the taster’s palate. This offering’s stupendous flavor profile, depth, and sensual nature led me to write “sexylicious!” in my notebook. Yet, what makes this Niederhauser stand out most when compared to Donnhoff’s other 2003 Spatlesen is the extraordinary precision of its fruit." Wine Advocate #156, Dec 2004 |
