2010 Dönnhoff Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel - Germany, Nahe (4/25/2012)
– popped and poured; 375mL –
– tasted a couple pours non-blind over approx. 1 hour –
– AP #: … 17 11 –
NOSE: expressive, but somewhat simple right now; intense apple; wet steel.
BODY: light green-yellow color; full bodied.
TASTE: sweet; concentrated green apple flavor, with some steely mineral in the background; lots of dry extract; great acidity; despite its up-front youthfulness, this wine strikes me as being quite elegant and destined for future greatness. 7.5% alc. not noticeable. Pleasurable now, but really should be held for quite some time. I expect I’d score this wine higher twenty years down the line. Drink 2022 – 2050.
B: 50, 5, 12, 18, 9 = (94+ pts.)
