Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 92 points: A head-turning nose of cherry and apple with their flowers incorporates intimations of mint and cress. This combination serves for a succulently fruity and coolingly herbal impression on the silky mid-palate that...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: 96+ Coming from partly ungrafted vines down to 50 years, the 2015 Stromberg Riesling GG comes from the steepest and stoniest porphyry vineyards of the domaine. It opens deep, clear and flinty on the nose, with a very pure...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: 95+ The 2015 (Schlossböckelheimer) Felsenberg Riesling GG 'Felsentürmchen' is from the steep, south-facing cru with volcanic soils. It opens very pure and stony, with deep, flinty flavors and a lemon perfume sprayed over...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: A tang of salty minerals extends throughout this sublime spätlese. Intensely fruity, its sweet white-peach and mango flavors seem to fall on the tongue in crystalline shards. Light-footed and vibrantly acidic, it's a...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Coolish, very clear, subtle but multi-layered on the highly elegant, finesse-full and flinty nose starts the 2014 Riesling Dellchen GG. This is a full-bodied, pure, very elegant, highly complex and frisky Riesling of...

View From The Cellar, 96 points: The 2015 Halenberg GG is utterly brilliant. The bouquet is pure, youthfully complex and very, very precise in its blend of pink grapefruit, plenty of smokiness, a very complex base of slatey, flinty minerality, wild...

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: Cool and leafy yet super-ripe with gigantic depth this doesn't leave you in any doubt about its profound originality. In spite of this the acidity is less strident than in many of the best 2016 GGs from the Nahe. Don't...

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: Unexpectedly charming on the nose for a wine from volcanic soil this has stunning grapefruit and lime character. Then just when you think it’s a nice guy the totally radical, smoky and mineral finish comes through to...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: Another 2016 Spätlese from Dönnhoff that's still a bit shy on the nose, but on the palate it’s like a huge glittering diamond with more facets flashing many colors. An extremely long super-mineral finish that is...
