Note di degustazione
White peach and Rainier cherry are tinged with cardamom on the nose and brightly laced with grapefruit on a firm palate that is underlain with wet stone but that boasts the buoyancy and succulence to banish any sense of austerity. Raw almond and piquant peach pit add interest en route to a superbly sustained and multifaceted finish. I have little doubt that this will be even more impressive in a few years, but that is no reason to defer enjoyment of one’s first bottles.

Coolish, very clear, subtle but multi-layered on the highly elegant, finesse-full and flinty nose starts the 2014 Riesling Dellchen GG. This is a full-bodied, pure, very elegant, highly complex and frisky Riesling of great finesse and lots of salt. The wine is bone dry, but so intense, pure and mineral... so fine and so intense. This is probably the finest Dellchen I have tasted. Extraordinary! "We have picked the Dellchen earlier than we used to do in former years, when we tended to wait and to wait..." says Helmut Dönnhoff. "In 2014, botrytis forced us to pick earlier and now we are very happy with the result because we aim for clarity and precision."
Perfumed and ripe, yet firmly citric on the palate. Gets the austerity of Nahe but makes it accessible. A little spritz on the tongue. Finely hewn. (RH)
