About this wine

Dellchen is one of Dönnhoff’s most characterful Grosses Gewächs sites, a steep terraced vineyard of slate and volcanic porphyry. 2020 has optimal ripeness at low yields, it's a wine of great finesse and mineral energy rather than simple power. This is a serious dry Riesling for langoustine, white fish, veal or cellaring.
