92 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2020er Thörnicher Ritsch Riesling Kabinett 'Monster' was made from fruit picked at 81° Oechsle from 75-80-year-old vines in the central south-facing part of the vineyard and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (50 g/l). It offers a stunning and subtly creamy nose made of vineyard peach, herbs, citrusy elements, ginger, spices, and smoke. The subtly creamy theme carries over on the incredibly lightfooted palate. Here, more fruity flavors mingle with some elements of apricot and fine herbal elements which lead to a graceful, airy, and subtle finish. The complexity of this fruity-styled wine made in the style of a light-footed Auslese from the 1990s is simply remarkable. (Sep 2021)"
