Score 87/100 · Drink 2022-2033, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Sep 2021

The 2020 Riesling Trocken Gelblack comes in with stunning 13% alcohol and opens with a clear and pretty intense and warm yet elegant bouquet of ripe fruits intertwined with some crystalline notes. Full-bodied and powerful on the palate yet also fresh and piquant, this is more than an easy aperitif but less than a rich and complex Schloss Johannisberger. It is somewhere in between and comes across with fresh and vivacious acidity, which might be a bit too nervy for the solemn texture. Tasted at Schloss Gobelsburg in July 2021.

Score 93/100 · James Suckling, Jul 2021

Refined yellow-fruit aromas that span the range from grapefruit to mirabelle via peach. Ripe and generous, but with a serious structure beneath the restrained succulence on the surface. Powerful, mineral finish that retains all the freshness and the lightness you would expect. Drink or hold.
