93 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "What a beautiful nose of summer flowers and persimmon. Juicy and generous on the front- and mid-palates for this cool-climate site thanks to the very warm, dry summer. The touch of tannin underlines the long slatey finish. Very bright acidity for this vintage. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap. (8/7/23)"

90 points Anne Krebiehl, MW (Vinous): "The 2022 Riesling Tonschiefer is from the single site Oberhäuser Leistenberg, on weathered Tonschiefer or shale. The nose opens with ripe, mellow notes of ripe stone fruit and dandelion blossom, suggesting bold richness. The palate is a lithe and beautiful vision of lemony, bright citrus. The 2022 is animated with concentration, verve and a stony, lemony, almost austere finish. (Bone-dry) Drink: 2023-2035. (Sep 2023)"

Suave and stony, this dry Riesling is a prime example of terroir in a bottle. Dönnhoff's masterful hand takes Riesling growing on selected patches of decomposing slate and transforms into exquisite juice; its striking clarity only adds to its complexity. An exciting, classic and dry wine, ideal for Japanese cuisine, seaweed, oysters, and steamed mushrooms.
