Characteristics and tasting tips for the 2020 Tonschiefer Trocken from Weingut Dönnhoff
Tasting
This cuvée harmoniously combines a fruity nose with a lively and beautifully structured palate.
The richness and precision of a German white wine from the Nahe region
The estate
For over 250 years, the Weingut Dönnhoff has been overseeing a unique terroir of steep slopes on the banks of the Nahe. Helmut Dönnhoff crafts, vintage after vintage, great German wines from a mosaic of terroirs, expressing the complexity, purity, and multiple nuances of riesling, pinot blanc, and pinot gris.
Recognized beyond borders as some of the greatest white wines in the world, the wines of Weingut Dönnhoff captivate with their elegance, aromatic richness, freshness, and exceptional minerality that exudes after several decades of aging.
Vineyard
With an area of 25 hectares, the terroir of this essential German estate is unique in its variety of soils and exposures, offering ideal conditions for the grapes to reach optimal maturity. The rigorously cared-for vines, aged 20 to 70 years, produce low yields but of very high quality.
The wine
Classified as VDP Gutswein, this Riesling Tonschiefer Trocken from Weingut Dönnhoff comes from a steep vineyard with clay and slate soils, giving this Nahe wine great elegance. The vines are approximately 25 to 45 years old.
Vinification and aging
Rigorous selection during manual harvests to retain only high-quality grapes. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks and large oak barrels, as is aging.
Blend
Riesling (100%).
