96 points James Suckling: "All the flowers and herbs of an Alpine meadow pour from the glass of this very elegant dry riesling, which toys with complete weightlessness, but then reveals that it has a deep bond with the volcanic mysteries of the soil in the super long, crystalline finale. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap. (2/3/22)"

94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Kuenhof estate is well-known for its white-wine prowess, and its 2019 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Riesling Kaiton is very true to the grape, most of all with that tell-tale tarry note of petroleum. A release of 15,000 bottles with screw caps, this is just a terrific wine, especially for the price. There are ample notes of crushed stone, and the overall effect is tonic and tight, with razor-sharp aromas and mouthfeel. I can really get behind this Riesling. Drink: 2021-2027. (Sep 2021)"
