JS 97 (9/2021): A breathtaking wine that has all the mineral depth and concentration you associate with a Grand Cru, but also a wide spectrum of very fine citrus and berry aromas. Then it splash lands in an explosion of fresh-herb aromas. Drink or hold.
WS 96 (8/2021): The 2020 Frühlingsplätzchen GG is very pure and fresh on the precise and stony, pretty reductive and herbal nose that needs lots of air to open up. Crystalline and pure on the palate, this is a bone-dry, refined, enormously salty and piquant Riesling from partly red slate, loam and quartzite plots. The finish is pure, fresh and precise, very long and expressive. Tasted from a bottle that was opened three days earlier, it is much more charming and open on the nose, showing an intense and complex bouquet of crushed stones, lemons and white fruits. The palate is round and elegant, much lusher and long, but it still has long-lasting salinity on the finish. A gorgeous Frühlingsplätzchen that today comes from stonier plots than in the beginning of the GG saga. 12.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021. |

Krettnacher Euchariusberg Riesling Spatlese #14 |
$39 |

| VM 90 (5/2022): Issuing from vines in the Gross Schock sector with the nickname Ternes (which now appears in fine print on the label), the 2020 Riesling Krettnacher Euchariusberg Spätlese A.P. #14 leads with a faintly musky and prickly nose suggestive of lemon peel, sage and cassis leaf. I suspect these traits might point to a bit of botrytis having been involved, though also to a temporarily slightly reduced state. Ripe peach with peach kernel and huckleberry piquancy inform a palpably dense midpalate, and the combination of piquant elements, reprised prickle, and emerging stoniness lends the sustained finish a certain austerity that one wouldn’t anticipate from a residually sweet Spätlese. But then, apropos of “sweet,” this harbors around the same residual sugar as one of the Webers’ Kabinetts of this vintage, and, if anything, it comes off as slightly drier. It definitely deserves revisiting (especially considering the sensational performance of the vintage 2019 installment), and I wouldn’t invest too much confidence in my tentative quantified prognosis of its aging potential. (Drink between 2023-2034). David Schildknecht. |

Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spatlese feinherb #3 |

| |
| VM 94 (5/2022): Sourced overwhelmingly from a parcel near the core/original Herrenberg (owned by Kesselstatt) whose nickname “Palm” now appears on the label in tiny print, the 2020 Riesling Niedermenniger Herrenberg Kabinett feinherb A.P. #3 offers a memorably fragrant as well as succulent and scintillatingly bright performance transparent to musky floral, wet stone and shimmeringly crystalline nuances. The feel is polished, and the sense of midpalate lift is reflective of the wine’s mere 8.5% alcohol, which should in no way be interpreted as pointing to prominent sweetness – nor, for that matter, to analytically high residual sugar – because here the sense of sweetness is quite restrained. Bittersweet richness akin to almond and white peach close to the pit lends a low-toned depth to complement the wine’s tingling brightness on a finish of superb persistence. (Drink between 2021-2040). David Schildknecht. |

Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spatlese Feinherb Onkel Peter #4 |

WA 95 (8/2020): From a parcel with old, ungrafted vines, the 2019 Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spätlese feinherb #4 Onkel Peter opens with a clear, delicate and floral bouquet of finely weathered slate and perfectly ripe, healthy white seed fruits. Intense and refined on the palate, this is a generous, juicy, sweet but also complex and sustainable Spätlese with a firm structure and a long, refined and salty finish. This is not a Spätlese to drink young but one to cellar for at least 5-10 years. The aging potential should be enormous here. Drink between 2025-2050.
VM 93 (5/2022): The 2020 Riesling Niedermenniger Herrenberg Spätlese feinherb A.P. #4 issues from old, ungrafted vines in the parcel with the nickname Onkel Peter (which now appears in tiny print on the label), located in the Zuckerberg sector of the Herrenberg Einzellage. An enticing floral and green herbal mélange greets the nose, along with notes of white peach and grapefruit that subsequently serve for succulence, tang and brightness on a buoyant and polished palate. Peony and carnation deliver further, billowing inner-mouth appeal. Hints of green wood and peach kernel piquancy stimulate while being moderated by cooling green herbal infusion and animatingly juicy grapefruit on an impressively lingering finish. Look for this to preserve its complexity over time while projecting an even greater sense of completeness and more distinct composite personality. Drink between 2021-2034. David Schildknecht. |

| JS 96 (11/2021): So much star fruit, pink grapefruit and white peach on the nose, knocking you back slightly in the first moment. As bright as a rocket leaving the launch-pad in the direction of Mars, this dry riesling from the red soils of one of Nierstein’s top sites is super-straight and focused, the breathtaking, fresh finish intensely citrus and mineral. Drink or hold. |

Kupp Fass 18 Grosses Gewachs |

JS 95 (7/2021): Complex nose of wet ferns, wild berries and smoke. As cool and still as it is deep in the woods, this concentrated, tightly wound wine is just beginning to open up. Very classic, stony finish with noble austerity. Drinkable now, but best from 2023. Screw cap.
WA 92+ (9/2021): Lauer’s 2020 Kupp GG Fass 18 shows a clear and pure yet intense, still a bit yeasty bouquet. The palate is quite rich and powerful but elegant, revealing a Kupp that needs some years to develop more finesse and charm. The wine is quite intense and lush and provided with tannins that still dry the palate a bit. Tasted in Wiesbaden in August 2021. |

| WA 98 (8/2022): Coolish, pure and bright, with dashes of lemon oil on crushed blue slate rocks, the 2020 Felseneck GG is a Riesling to wake you up with its tart perfume. With lemon leaves and some sur lie notes on the nose, this is always precise, fresh and flinty and a picture-book Riesling for the favored style of Tim Fröhlich. This is as if the ocean was rushing over this vineyard that bears so much salt and power. In this case, its power and concentration shout for a carafe or a decade of bottle aging. For now, I prefer the purity and crystallinity of the Stromberg, but in the long run, this Felseneck could be unrivalled. |

| VM 94 (5/2022): The 2020 Riesling Kanzemer Altenberg Alte Reben Grosses Gewächs leads with lavender, iris, orange blossom, white peach and lime scents that soar from the glass. The feel is seductively silken, and the mouth fills with luscious pit fruit, animatingly bright citrus, wafting floral perfume, and the sort of mouthwatering animal, mineral and herbal savor akin to raw oyster innards that was also present in this collection’s Scharzhofberger Grosses Gewächs. The vibrant, invigorating finish is bell-clear and focused, while not forgetting Riesling’s fundamental duty to refresh. 5/2022. |
