Wine Spectator (WS) : 93 Points (2023)
A supremely elegant Riesling, with a fresh bouquet of floral high tones and fleshy peach and apricot skin. Glides through, with its silky texture punctuated by a salty, mineral blast. Zesty and rich, with penetrating acidity and mineral depth. Drink now through 2032. 120 cases imported.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 98 Points (2020)
Crushed lemon leaf and a heady hint of conifer peek through on the shy but nonetheless rather citric nose. The palate with its cut and concentration leaves you in no doubt about its absolute steeliness, its inherent drive, its uncompromising but ripe freshness. That lovely conifer and lemon notion still plays aromatically around the edges, making this heady and lifted. A profound core of stone lends eternal energy. Drink 2025–2050.Cellar Selection

Robert Parker (RP) : 96 Points (2020)
From a significantly late ripening, eastern part of the famous (and too large) cru, the 2019 Ried Loibenberg Loibner Riesling Smaragd is ripe and gentle on the elegant nose that shows perfectly ripe fruit intertwined with stony, herbal and cucumber notes. The palate is vibrantly fresh and vital yet also ripe and concentrated, with an almost pithy raisin aroma that is intermingled with refreshing lemon notes. This is a long-distance runner, and it should be cellared for at least 10 years.
