Donnhoff, Niederhauser Hermannshohle GG Riesling 2011 Bodega Cota 45 The palate is classic TantalusStony citrus again, with a dusty minerality. Subtle fragrance and just a touch of lime underneath. Slightly riper on the palate than the 2010 but less intensity than the Dellchen 2011. And not as long, though on second tasting I realise it is longer than I thought at first. Hint of spice at the very end. Elegant and understated. Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson. com (16. 5)
