It is often regarded as one of Germany's very best producers, famous for the high-quality of its wines which are made predominantly from Riesling. The wine portfolio includes single-vineyard wines and estate wines with approximately 10,000 cases produced each vintage. Dönnhoff is one of only three German estates to receive a 100-point rating from Robert Parker, for the 2001, 2002, 2004 and 2010 vintages of its Riesling Eiswein. The estate is located at Oberhausen in the Riesling heartland of Nahe. There are around 20 hectares (50 acres) of vineyard, with a healthy proportion of Erste Lage sites. Some 80 percent of production is of the Riesling grape, which is planted on rocky, volcanic soils, giving the wines balanced acidity and intense minerality. The remainder of Dönnhoff's vineyards are devoted to Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris. These are planted on more loamy, less stony soils, which retain more water through the summer. Winemaking is simple at Dönnhoff. Whole-bunch pressing is followed by 10-18 hours of settling, then fermentation in casks or stainless steel tanks. After resting on lees, the wines are filtered in the March after vintage and are bottled a few months later. The Dönnhoff family has been making wine in this region since the 1750s. However, since Helmut Dönnhoff took over in 1971, the estate has been built up step-by-step from 4ha (10 ac) to its current size. Its reputation has increased in similar proportions. Helmut has been described as a \"superstar\" by Robert Parker and as having a \"fanatical commitment to quality, and a remarkable natural talent for winemaking\" by British wine writer Hugh Johnson.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-14T15:01:25-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-08T11:18:14-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Germany","Other_Wine","Producer_Weingut Dönnhoff","Region_Nahe","RK060324","Source_Hedonism0324","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Riesling"],"price":28195,"price_min":28195,"price_max":28195,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44455337590922,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2001 | Weingut Dönnhoff | Oberhauser Leistenberg Riesling Auslese","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":28195,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/79_9a14f736-b8fc-4eea-a2d9-5ae9dba583da.png?v=1709914746"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/79_9a14f736-b8fc-4eea-a2d9-5ae9dba583da.png?v=1709914746","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2001 | Weingut Dönnhoff | Oberhauser Leistenberg Riesling Auslese at CaskCartel.com","id":26424388714634,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.31,"height":358,"width":111,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/79_9a14f736-b8fc-4eea-a2d9-5ae9dba583da.png?v=1709914746"},"aspect_ratio":0.31,"height":358,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/79_9a14f736-b8fc-4eea-a2d9-5ae9dba583da.png?v=1709914746","width":111}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2001 | Weingut Dönnhoff | Oberhauser Leistenberg Riesling Auslese\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aromatic profile of the 2001 Riesling Auslese Oberhauser Leistenberg is characterized by honey, stone fruits and minerals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Weingut Dönnhoff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2001 \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Riesling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Germany, Nahe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aromatic profile of the 2001 Riesling Auslese Oberhauser Leistenberg is characterized by honey, stone fruits and minerals.
