Wein‑Plus Classification: One of the best producer in the world

The wines of these establishments count every year to the absolute best of its kind and is almost unrivaled in the top - and that regardless of vintage variations. But the simpler plants are almost invariably excellent. Weaknesses, there are virtually no, and mediocre wines are as good as never before.

About
Weingut Hermann Dönnhoff

The traditional winery in the municipality of Oberhausen is located in the German wine-growing region Near, The first records of the Dönnhoff family existed as early as 1761, and the family chronicle documented early grape blooms (1781) and rich grape harvests (1784) in detail. The grandfather Herrmann Dönnhoff Senior (1880-1953) had a great passion for Riesling and paid great attention to winemaking and the purchase of prime locations in the area. His son Hermann Dönnhoff Junior (1916-1991) continued this tradition. When Helmut Dönnhoff vinified his first vintage in 1971 at the age of 22, the business had already turned into a pure winery. His saying "My vineyards are like my children" illustrates how much value is placed on meticulous vineyard work. After his training and various stays abroad, the fourth generation is now run by Cornelius Dönnhoff.

The vineyards cover 28 hectares of vineyards in individual locations Kahlenberg. Krötenpfuhl, ( Bad Kreuznach ) Hermannshöhle and clammy (Niedernhausen) Dellchen and Kirschheck (Norheim) bridge privately owned and afford Berg (Oberhausen), Höllenpfad (Roxheim) and Felsenberg (Schlossboeckelheim). You are 80% with Riesling as well as 10% Pinot Gris ( Pinot gris ) and Pinot Blanc ( Pinot Blanc ) planted with vines, some of which are 65 years old. The environmentally friendly and sustainable Management of the vineyards, production and sales are carried out according to the certified rules of the association Fair'n Green,

The wines are made according to the VDP classification model marketed in the Gutsweine, Lagenweine and Grosse Gewächse lines. The fermentation is also done in part spontaneous with vinous yeasts in stainless steel tanks, After that, the wines are made in traditional old large wooden barrels made from German oak.
