Donnhoff, Riesling Felsenberg GG other_regions earth and spice aromasThe 2020 Felsenberg GG is deep, intense and complex on the pure and elegant, well defined and slightly flinty nose. Pure, intense and juicy on the palate, this is a crystalline, refined and salty Felsenberg with great terroir expression and length, even though the wine is still puristic or even ascetic in the finish. Not as charmingly fruity as Crusiuss interpretation but with the same length and tension. 13% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021
