2014 Riesling Wine

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: From slate soils with calcareous parts, the 2014 Riesling Uhlen L 'VDP Grosse Lage' (picked in the lieut-dit Laubach) opens with a deep and cool, fascinating, yet still somewhat discreet and dusty/stony, herbal bouquet...

Wine Enthusiast, 91 points: Complex notes of bee pollen, saffron and caramel lend nuance to zesty apple and citrus peel aromas on this dry-style Riesling. It's a richly concentrated yet invigoratingly crisp wine marked by sun-kissed tangerine and...

Vinous, 96 points: The Fröhlichs’ signature site has never, in my experience, faced such formidable competition from their other Grosse Gewächse (which are also more numerous than ever, thanks to the post-2012 inclusion of Stromberg) but it...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: 95+ The 2014 Kiedricher Grafenberg Riesling trocken GG combines the fine and highly elegant Riesling fruit of the Klosterberg with the finesse-full and precise purity of the Gräfenberg phyllite terroir. Piquant and...

Decanter, 93 points: A mineral rather than fruit-driven Riesling from 40-year-old vines, that shows off beautifully the volcanic terroir of the Stromberg and Felsenberg grand crus. Racy acidity lifts tangy tart apples, fresh lime and smoky...

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, 90 points: The Estate Riesling from Weingut Schaefer in 2014 finished off nicely at between thirty- five and forty percent residual sugar, to balance out nine grams per liter of acidity and is really a beautiful bottle of wine. The...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Herbal flavors and stewed fruit aromas dominate the super clear and stony bouquet of the 2014 Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Rothenpfad Reserve. Aged for two years on its lees and bottled in October 2016 just two weeks...

Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: Deep, dusty slate and smoke tones rim the edges of this sleek, laser-edged Kabinett. It's intensely concentrated in lemon and lime flavors, but darkly mineral as well, finishing on sweet-tart hits of citrus and salt...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: Molitor's 2014 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) has a yellow-golden color and displays a very clear and precise, rather warm and tropical bouquet of fully ripe, perfectly selected Riesling...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: A barely-there glimpse of lemon bids you to step closer and take a sip. The palate unfolds in a still tightly contained bundle of lemon zest and juiciness. There is an undertow of riper texture, reminiscent of bitter...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: 95+ The 2014 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Auslese ** (White Capsule) opens with a clear and initially pretty 'Burgundian' bouquet, with yeasty and spicy as well as some sweet oak and lemon chutney flavors. When I...

Vinous, 92 points: A fascinating and delightful nose suggests sea breeze in its salinity and alkalinity; diverse floral perfumes; and mint-tinged ripe pear. An intriguingly earthy, marine suggestion of sea urchin adds mouthwatering savor to...

Vinous, 95 points: Ripe white peach, zesty fresh lemon, toasted squash seeds, wet stone and high-toned almond extract mingle on a stunningly forceful and multidimensional nose. The rich, expansive midpalate impression is by turns creamy and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: The golden-yellow 2014 Riesling Zeltinger Schlossberg Auslese *** (White Capsule) displays a deep, clear, concentrated, aromatic and stony/smoky bouquet of crushed stones, lemons, ripe peaches and dried apricots...
