2022 Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling, Grosses Gewachs, Hermann Donnhoff

~ (97) Anne Krebiehl, Vinous 6-1-2023

The restrained beauty of the peachiness in the nose is hard to describe, but easy to be overwhelmed by! On the compact palate this has staggering concentration yet still manages to be very light on its feet. The finish is blade-runner sharp, but the blade also flashes in the sun. Breathtaking drive and energy for the very warm and dry vintage. Then comes the remarkable wet-stone minerality and you can’t wait for the next sip. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. ~ (99) James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 7-19-2023

Intense and stony aromas of pink grapefruit and ripe apricot. Then the palate takes a hard right-hand turn into the shadows and leaves any shimmer of ripeness behind. Racy and refreshing, dense and deep, it picks up tension, power and momentum with each moment in the glass. A force to be reckoned with. ~ (17) Paula Sidore, JancisRobinson.com 8-28-2023
