White peach with hints of spruce resin, scrub, and quarry dust in the nose of Donnhoff`s 2008 Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling Grosses Gewachs prepare the way for a subtly oily-textured, sappy, peachy and resinous palate concentration accented by grapefruit peel and white pepper. This clings and invigorates with dramatic grip and energy while remaining coolly herbal and mineral, a mounting sense of salinity drawing out your saliva. As it opens to the air, a classic sense of layering of mineral, fruit, herb and spice becomes more clearly visible, but a dynamic sense of oscillation of flavors also remains. Look for this profoundly complex, intriguing, reserved yet startlingly powerful Riesling to evolve fascinatingly for 10-12 years. It was back to the roots this year, announced a beaming Helmut Donnhoff when I arrived to taste his 2008s. He harvested in the last week of October and first half of November during which time he characterized the weather as cool and stable. I can guarantee you, he added, that we didn`t for a single day have muddy boots. - David Schildknecht
