Note di degustazione
An intriguing and enticing nose suggests sea breeze mingled with mint, lilac, and peony. It also offers intimations of apple and white peach that then juicily inform a polished, subtly oily palate. Nips of cress, cooling impingement of mint and piquancy of peach kernel all serve for a fascinating tactile as well as flavor diversity, leading into a long finish that reveals mossy, stony depth and mouthwateringly oyster liquor-like savor. For me, this strikes an ideal balance between on the one hand “puristic” insistence on adamant dryness and dominant minerality; and, on the other, charm, irresistibility, and awareness of wine’s duty to refresh.

From slate and porphyry soils in the terraced Norheim cru, the 2015 (Norheimer) Dellchen Riesling GG opens with a perfectly ripe, superbly defined and highly refined Riesling bouquet with stony, lemony, ripe apple and mocha flavors from perfectly ripe pips. This grand cru is truly complex and elegant on the nose, with fine floral and herbal flavors. On the palate, this is a pure, highly elegant, intense and silky textured Riesling with great finesse and expression. There is really great balance and length here, and it is not exhausting at all. The finish is a parade of minerals, salts, and the finesse of the best Dellchen I have ever tasted, and it does not end too soon to celebrate itself. This is a beautifully structured and smooth Riesling--a legend of clarity, finesse and elegance.
A fascinating concoction of mirabelle, yellow plum and rhubarb flan does not need the help of tropical-fruit overdrive to excite the nostrils of even the most pampered Riesling enthusiast. Total purity is the trademark of Dönnhoff’s Grosse Gewächse, and the Dellchen uses mineral finesse and perfectly poised acidity to achieve this aim. (MS)
