ABOUT THIS WINE
DĂNNHOFF WeiĂburgunder (Pinot Blanc) is grown on the sloping sites of the middle Nahe region in weathered volcanic soil and loess loam. Age of vines 20 - 30 years
100% selective hand harvest. Fermentation and ca. 4 months maturing in a classic large barrel made of German oak.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
The Dönnhoff Family is proud to call Oberhausen an der Nahe home. Running from Niederhausen to SchloĂböckelheim, the majestic landscapes of the Nahe Valley have held sway over us for more than 250 years. The first official mention of the Dönnhoff name dates back to 1761; the familyâs own history book details the early flowering of 1781 and the bumper grape harvest of 1784. Helmut Dönnhoffâs grandfather laid the cornerstone for the estateâs success. Right from the outset Hermann Dönnhoff (1880-1953) focused his attention on planting Riesling vines in prized vineyards, and by the 1920s was filling his wines into bottles and selling the finest of them by their individual vineyard names. We owe our undying thanks to his son Hermann Jr. (1916-1991) not just for the cultivation of our âOberhĂ€user BruÌckeâ site, but also for the construction of the press house in 1936 and the estateâs first cellar space. In 1953 the estate received a Merit of Honor from the government for its outstanding viticultural achievements.
