90 Points! Sliced green apples, lime peel and gooseberries on the nose of this bright and crunchy white. It’s light-bodied, dry and crisp. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.  - JamesSuckling.com

95 Points! A hypnotic nose of allspice, cloves, cinnamon and summer flowers with touches of licorice and wild berries. Superfocused and energetic, this has the kind of concentration and energy that a red wine needs in order to age for decades. However, it also has a ton of berry fruit on the compact, medium-bodied palate. Very fine tannins drive the extremely long, linear finish. Drinkable now but best from 2026. - JamesSuckling.com

90 Points! Very fresh and crisp with an attractive lightness of body and generous green-apple fruit. Pronounced green-peppercorn character in the long, bright finish. Sustainable. Drink now. - JamesSuckling.com

95 Points! The 2023 Riesling Pfaffenberg has subtle citrus and a darker aspect that disappears on the palate. The body is zesty, driven and energetic, with stony determination and citrus wings, grapefruit, tangerine and all the tangy stuff. Despite this soaring nature, this is anchored in stone. The 2023 is compelling, strait-laced, precise and oh-so juicy. Wonderfully dry. - Anne Krehbiel MW, Vinous Media

94+ Points! The 2020 Steiner Ried Grillenparz 1ÖTW Kremstal Riesling is pure, fresh and stony on the clear, precise, terroir-driven nose. Round and juicy on the elegant and refined palate, this Riesling has crystalline acidity and a long, intense, aromatic and salty-piquant finish. It is very young but digestible and with great talents to age terrifically well. Tasted in Grafenegg, September 2021. - Stephan Reinhardt, robertparker.com
