94+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2020 Hubacker is another superb young wine, and though it followed the finest young vintage of Kirchspiel I have ever tasted, it had no difficulties keeping pace. The youthful aromatic constellation delivers scents of pink grapefruit, blood orange, a dollop of wild yeasts, citrus blossoms, yellow limestone, orange peel and a cool touch of menthol in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and absolutely rock solid at the core, with lovey soil signature, bright, snappy acids, great focus and grip and a long, reserved and impeccably balanced finish. Though the Kirchspiel is more precisely detailed out of the blocks, my gut instincts are that the Hubacker may actually start to drink with generosity a year or two ahead of it. 2032-2085. (Jan/Feb 2022)"
93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 25 21. The 2020er Hubacker Riesling, as it is referred to on the consumer label, is a bone-dry wine made only from the upper and steeper part of the vineyard. It proves initially rather restrained and needs a few minutes in the glass to reveals a quite aromatic and attractive nose of grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, white mint, and yellow flowers, all wrapped into a sea of spices. The aromatic side of the wine is also noticeable on the palate, which has great presence and even a light juicy and broad side. The finish proves hugely long and also superbly fresh thanks to an exquisite lemon-driven acidity cutting through the more aromatic side. This hugely impressive GG needs a couple of years to show all its finesse. 2027-2040. (Sep 2021)"
