If the 2009 vintage is velvet, the 2010 is lightning in a bottle.
Grace Under Pressure
From the steep, volcanic slopes of Felsenberg, this perfectly aged Grand Cru Riesling is a time capsule from one of the most thrilling vintages in German wine history. The acidity is legendary, the precision is surgical, and the experience is unforgettable.
Over a decade in the bottle has only begun to unwind its coiled brilliance. Grapefruit pith and lime zest ride a wave of electric acidity. The volcanic minerality here is off the charts, with a smoky, flinty taste that is almost tactile. The 2010 vintage tested every winemaker, but the quiet genius of Helmut Dönnhoff turned a challenge into a triumph.
How to Enjoy
This wine's high acidity makes it a thrilling food partner. Serve gently chilled with spicy cuisine, rich fish, or schnitzel.
