Donnhoff Hollenpfad im Muhlenberg Riesling Grosses Gewachs 2023 97-98+Lobenberg$76.99 6+ $81.99Hollenpfad im Muhlenberg is a fairly new site for Dönnhoff, one which Helmut Dönnhoff thought had the potential for a GG - he was right. This is an impressive GG with massive structure and density and most impressively terrific intensity. Our Note: Powerful, coiled, and intense with minerality and acidity, the fruit is mostly spicy citrus and some white orchard fruit. These are yet to be bottled and this was a sample, so assessing these was fun, but the wines were tightly layered and took some coaxing in the glass to reveal its charms. 97-98+ pts Lobenberg (translated using Google Translate)This monopole site (single owner), which is registered as Große Lage, has a total of four hectares, but this GG only comes from one hectare of the oldest vines. The location is basically made of red sandstone, but there is also this section from which this GG comes, where a lot of pure rock plays a role. H
