 The Nahe has done well over the past several years, but 2010 has struck a new balance. The estates on the lower end of the valley have an elegance that they did not possess in the richer vintages of the recent past…and nowhere in Germany will you found such a vast assortement of excellent estates in such a small region. Yes, Dönnhof, Emrich-Schönleber, Schäfer-Fröhlich and Diel still lead the fray, but Jakob Schneider and Hermannsberg have added new colour to the middle stretch of the river! Impressive!! It will be interesting to see how they compare with their colleagues from Rheingau, Rheinhessen and the Pfalz in September. Comments
