Oberhäuser Leistenberg Riesling Kabinett, Weingut Dönnhoff 2021

Helmut Dönnhoff believes that exceptional wines require exceptional vineyards and, as a result, the majority of their family vineyards are located on grand cru sites. An old name in the Nahe, the Dönnhoff vineyards have been built up over the past half century, from just four hectares when Helmut took over the family estates to 28 hectares today. In 2007, Helmut handed over the reins to his son, fourth generation Cornelius, who continues his father’s pursuit of vibrancy, purity and quality.

Riesling is king in the Nahe, making up 80% of the Dönnhoff vineyards, the balance being Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris, and their aim is to reflect their wide variety of soils which range from classic slate and loam to volcanic derived soils like porphyry. This Oberhäuser Leistenberg comes from steep, slate-dominated slopes.
