Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Spätlese, Dönnhoff (Magnum) 2023
The name means 'Hermann's cave' and there is indeed an old mine in the vineyard showing its mineral-laden heritage. Dönnhoff manages to bring this terroir to the bottle together with good richness and perfect balance.
VOLNAY 1er Cru Santenots Domaine Nicolas Rossignol 2019
(from Santenots Dessous). Very ripe aromas of cassis, black berry liqueur, violet and anise precede the equally broad-shouldered flavors that also coat the palate with dry extract on the powerful, hugely long and very serious finish that is shaped by a markedly firm tannic spine. This is a buy and forget you own it wine as I would suggest not touching a bottle for at least 10 years. With that said, this is most impressive.
