About this Item

2008 Oberhauser Eiswein
1 (1 x 1) 375ml

Dating back to 1761, the 28-hectare Dönnhoff estate is situated in Oberhausen an der Nahe. Running from Niederhausen to Schloßböckelheim, the majestic landscapes of the Nahe Valley have held sway over the family for over 250 years. From the outset, Hermann Dönnhoff (1880-1953) focused his attention on planting Riesling vines in prized vineyards and, by the 1920s, was bottling and selling his wines under their individual vineyard names. In 1953 the estate received a Merit of Honor from the government for its outstanding viticultural achievements. Today, the fourth generation holds the reins. Cornelius Dönnhoff maintains their rich family history and keeps the estate as it has always been. With its nine Große Lagen, counted among the absolute finest in the region, the estate has an excellent international reputation for its grand German Rieslings.
