Note di degustazione
Redcurrant, lime and mint waft alluringly from the glass. The luscious and delicate palate suggests jellied redcurrant and lime sorbet laced with green herbal extracts as well as mineral salts. The result is coolingly soothing yet at the same time stimulating, not least of the salivary glands. Suggestions of almond paste and candied lime peel tug the long finish in a confectionery direction but without primary juiciness or refreshment being denied.

Finely balanced mineral and citrus on the nose, smells dry and stony/dusty yet inviting, opening up to a light honeyed note. More honeyed on the palate, sweetish but the sweetness is cut across by the freshness and dry mineral quality. Still a touch of SO2 in evidence on the nose but I am sure this will disappear in time.

The 2014 Riesling Spätlese Oberhäuser Brücke--from Dönnhoff's famous Eiswein, Auslese and Spätlese vineyard--opens very fine, pure and coolish on the slate-like/flinty nose. Piquant, sweet and juicy on the palate, this is a highly elegant and minerally structured Spätlese with a perfectly ripe acidity. It's always the latest vineyard that has been picked. If there is a vineyard in Dönnhoff's portfolio that is similar to the Saar, it is the Brücke, and especially the 2014 vintage. It's just great.
Fragrant with grapefruit and a slight note of blossom. Fine purity and a really clear window onto the peachy citrus fruit. Shapely and long. Lovely. (JH)
