Tasting Notes

The 2020 Oberhäuser Brücke Riesling Spätlese is super clear, refined and fresh on the rather coolish but fruit-intense and elegant, slightly flinty nose. Salty-piquant and highly stimulating on the palate, this is a gorgeous, very elegant and juicy Riesling with a crystalline, laser-sharp acidity that is highly refined as well and carries this Spätlese to a long and intense finish. 8.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021.

The Brücke, in sole ownership of the Dönnhoff family, owes its unique and complex fragrance and flavour to a great diversity of soil components. Still a little reticent at this youthful stage, it exhibits a fine fragrance with fruity, spicy and floral aromas. Although on the palate stone fruit and yellow plums are ripe, they don’t come across as excessively sweet and are expertly balanced by tingling acidity. Racy and vibrant. (MS)
