92 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "So effusive thanks to the cornucopia of white peach and yellow apple, but also floral notes. Super fresh and juicy on the medium-bodied palate and the brilliant finish is barely off-dry. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink now. Screw cap. (9/23/21)"

92 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "Sourced in Oberhausen and Niederhausen (so from weathered slate and volcanic stones), the Dönnhoff estate 2020 Riesling is pure and refreshingly mineral on the nose that shows clear, bright and spicy fruit with crunchy slate aromas. Virtually a classic Kabinett, this is a round, only gently sweet Riesling with clear lemon fruit, a silky texture and very elegant, ripe and piquant acidity. This is a gorgeously fruity and stimulating Riesling to start with after a long night if you don't have fresh fruit on the table. 'We have to be careful that it doesn't get too good for the price range,' says Helmut Dönnhoff, and he is right, because this is a Nahe classic or, as Dönnhoff puts it, 'This is the light, pure optimism, a children's choir. That is joie de vivre.' 10.5% alcohol. Tasted at the domain in July 2021. Drink: 2021-2040. (Sep 2021)"
