Riesling Niederhauser Hermannshohle GG 2024 Donnhoff

Professional reviews

James Suckling (98)

A masterpiece of power and elegance that has incredible lightness, yet with fantastic power in the finish. I love the delicate peach and peach blossom aromas. This carries the high acidity of the vintage beautifully, but your patience will be rewarded. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold.

Intense and lively with real structure and the ability to age. A hint of walnuts on the tight, tense Riesling base. (JR)

Vinous (97)

The 2024 Riesling Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Grosses Gewächs is from vines planted in 1949 on shale with some calcareous inclusions. Just 1,500 kg per hectare were harvested, about 8% less than usual. This is already luminous, even as barrel sample, with sumptuousness, poise and grace. A ripe lemon juice note flows and stays the course in a straight line, taking over and filling out the mouth and mind. Its exquisite ripeness is depicted in the most svelte shape with crystalline clarity. (Bone-dry)

Mosel Fine Wines (95)

The Hermannshöhle Riesling 2024 -GG-, as it is referred to on the consumer label, proves quite smoky and herbal at first, and only gradually develops a very attractive and complex nose of tangerine, yellow peach, pear, aniseed, minty herbs, smoke, and thyme. The wine proves comparatively light-weighted yet very delicate and pure. It leaves an energetic and beautifully focused and mouthwatering in the very long and well-delineated finish. This combines elegance, charm, and finesse in a remarkable way.
