Score 94/100 · Drink 2030-2060, Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, Dec 2021

The 2019 Ried Hochrain Riesling Smaragd is from inside the Axpoint and entirely grown on loess. Also, this Riesling is a bit rigorous and mean on the slightly untamed but concentrated and fruity nose that shows more white stone fruit aromas. Round and elegant on the palate yet with a firm phenolic grip, this is an intense and sustainable, full-bodied, substantial and powerful Riesling that tastes like a baby at this stage, so it is far from being ready to be served. 13% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in June 2021.
