"A still shy nose is not ready to give up its secrets easily, despite much swirling and air. It is the palate that lifts the veil on the citric depth and intensity at the heart of this wine. Tangerine and lemon seem to emanate from a deep, stony, steely and cool depth. That citrus heart is concentrated and seems to draw on a boundless energy that drives it forward with purpose. This is beautiful, chiseled and unbelievably vivid. Drink 2025–2050."

"Maybe I’m amazed, because this stunning dry riesling marries ravishing fruit aromas. The spectrum ranges from mirabelle to candied lemon via peach, also with wild-herb notes, plus stony minerality. The long finish flickers between lime zest and white chocolate. And all somehow remains delicate! Drink or hold."

"Aged on the full lees for about nine or 10 months in large oak, the 2019 Ried Kellerberg Riesling is quite ripe and concentrated on the nose but also deep and flinty, with attractive phenols. Very elegant and juicy on the palate, this is a round, mild and almost seamlessly textured Riesling with ripe and stewed apricot aromas and fine tannin grip. Good length."
