The 2022 Schloss Johannisberg Gelblack Riesling Trocken is a white wine from the renowned Rheingau region in Germany. Produced by Schloss Johannisberg, this Riesling is presented in a 750 ml bottle and sealed with a traditional cork.

James Suckling awarded this wine a notable score of 93 points, highlighting its "expansive nose of mirabelle with a range of citrus aromas and hints of fresh pineapple and vanilla." He notes that the palate is "much crisper... than the nose suggested, but with the same full fruit." Suckling emphasizes the wine's "impressive structure" and "pronounced minerality," which power the "long, bright and focused finish." This wine is crafted from organically grown grapes, offering a sustainable choice for consumers. Suckling concludes that this Riesling can be enjoyed now or held for further aging ("jamessuckling.com").

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also praised the 2022 Schloss Johannisberg Gelblack Riesling Trocken, giving it a score of 91 points. Reviewer SR describes the wine as having an "intensely fruity yet also pure and spicy, classic Johannisberg nose," with aromas of ripe Riesling and a hint of oak. The wine, bottled in April 2023, is characterized as "round, refined and elegant on the palate," with a "supple and mouth-filling" texture. The mineral structure adds to its expressiveness, culminating in a "savory and fresh" finish with lemon notes. The stated alcohol content is 12.5%, and SR tasted it at the domaine in September 2023 ("Robert Parker's Wine Advocate").

Both reviewers agree on the excellent quality of the 2022 Schloss Johannisberg Gelblack Riesling Trocken, noting its balance between fruitiness and minerality, along with a structure that supports both immediate enjoyment and potential for aging. This Riesling stands out for its craftsmanship and adherence to organic growing practices, making it a noteworthy option for wine enthusiasts.
