"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 tasterâs palate. This offeringâs stupendous flavor profile, depth, and sensual nature led me to write âsexylicious!â in my notebook. Yet, what makes this Niederhauser stand out most when compared to Donnhoffâs other 2003 Spatlesen is the extraordinary precision of its fruit."

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
