James Suckling: 100 Points
The pinnacle of racy, stony riesling with an incredible Amalfi-lemon, lime and wild-herb freshness. On the medium-bodied palate, it’s beautifully elegant before a titanic wave of wet-stone minerality washes you away. How to come back from that and deal with normal wines? From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold.

Fallstaff Magazine:
"Light yellow-green with a silver sheen. Subtle nuances of orange concentrate, yellow tropical fruit, mango, a floral touch, a hint of blossom honey. Taut, tightly woven, white peach, an acidity full of finesse, mineral and long-lasting, elegant, good length, strong ageing potential, already drinking well.-Peter Moser" 96-98

The 2023 Riesling Steinertal is from high parcels in the Steinertal, close to the woods. Lemon and lemon leaf are pure and fragrant on the nose. This is whip-smart, slender and so perfumed. It is wonderfully clean cut, ripe and smooth in its lemony brightness and gorgeously fresh. The 2023 is linear, bright, stony and absolutely citrus-arrow-like. (Bone-dry) 95=97
