97 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Ripe and succulent, this generous dry riesling is so easy to enjoy, but also has so much depth and finesse. Stunning apricot, pineapple and mineral finish. Drink or hold. (8/16/20)"
95 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2019 Hubacker is another stunning young wine. This is a touch deeper, broader-shouldered and more exotic than the utterly classical Kirchspiel this year, offering up a stunning aromatic constellation of sweet grapefruit, blood orange, a touch of passion fruit, a beautiful base of minerality, wild yeasts, lemongrass, orange peel and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is deep, young and full-bodied, with a rock solid core of fruit, stunning transparency and cut, zesty acids and a very, very long and mineral-driven finish. This is every bit as reserved out of the blocks as the Kirchspiel and will need some extended bottle age to blossom, but it is going to be stunning in due course! 2031-2085. (Jan/Feb 2021)"
95 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 20 20. The 2019er Hubacker Riesling, as it is referred to on the consumer label, is a bone-dry wine made from grapes harvested in the upper and steeper part of the vineyard. It delivers a gorgeously complex and engaging nose of tangerine, spices, herbs, yellow peach, minty herbs, and grapefruit puree. The wine develops a beautiful sense of focus and energy on the spicy and juicy palate and leaves a pure and zesty feel in the nicely bone-dry finish. The after-taste is all about baroque presence underpinned by the aromatic intensity yet also a great sense of lightness. This stunning wine is still in its infancy and will certainly need a decade to come together and develop its structure. But one thing is already clear now: This beauty is one of the best young Hubacker we have ever tasted from Weingut Keller. 2029-2049. (Oct 2020)"
