The balance and freshness of a German white wine
The estate
For over 250 years, the Weingut Dönnhoff has been overseeing a unique terroir of vertiginous 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. Recognised beyond borders as being among 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 ageing.
