WTN: Donnhoff Pinot Blanc!

by David M. Bueker » Fri Aug 04, 2017 7:31 am

2012 Dönnhoff Weissburgunder trocken - Germany, Nahe (8/3/2017)
Purchased at the Frankfurt airport duty free a few years ago, this got "lost" in my cellar. Well no matter, as it was still very fresh, with plenty of stone fruit and tropical tones, as well as refreshing acidity. Lovely wine that was right there with top Pinot Blancs I have had from producers such as Boxler or Hiedler.

I don't think I've ever seen in US, though John G held it up as an exemplar of PB in a discussion a few years ago (I was arguing for Austria as standard bearer)

Terry Theise says he can get it for me if I commit to 10 cases.

Aha, perfect quantity. Maybe mix in a few other cuvees, some grauburgunder, and you're set!
