Description
Donnhoff Tonschiefer Riesling Dry Slate, Nahe, Germany, 2022
Grape: 100% Riesling, hand harvested, fermented and matured in stainless steel vats and large oak barrels.
Full-bodied, mineral Riesling wine with a fruit nose of great finesse and classic acidity.
"Delicate and cool aromas of green apple, apricot and mandarin. Vibrant acidity holds ripe fruit in one hand and wet crushed stone in the other. Finely textured and already quite appealing." Drink 2023-2028
16.5/20 points, Paula Sidore, JancisRobinson.com, May 2023
The sloping vineyards of the Leistenberg are characterised predominantly by clay slate soils. This dry, blackish-grey slate is perfect for producing superbly elegant wines. This characterful dry Riesling from these soils is named after this ancient rock. Tonschiefer translates as clay slate.
