97 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Welcome to the smoke-hole of radically mineral dry riesling! Here is the dark side of the force, in spite of the yellow-grapefruit zest. Very slowly but steadily opens with aeration. So ripe, yet so savagely original, so precise and subtle. The finish is like licking a samurai sword from the hilt to the tip. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drinkable now, but best from 2023. (8/8/22)"

96-97 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "From porphyry soils, the 2021 Felsenberg GG offers a pure yet intense and elegant, darker toned and flinty bouquet of crushed stones with plummy notes, delicate spices and herbal notes. Full-bodied, pure and fresh on the palate, with fine tannins and ripe and refined acidity, this is a lush and round but finely tannic and aromatic Felsenberg with enormously salinity on the intense and aromatic, crisp and crunchy finish. Tasted as a sample at the domaine in July 2022. Drink: 2022-2050. (Aug 2022)"

93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 20 22. The 2021er Felsenberg Riesling GG, as it is referred to on the consumer label, offers a captivating smoky and flinty nose of grilled citrus, grapefruit, flint stone, fresh almond, bacon, anise, lime tree, and smoke. The wine is superbly balanced on the light-weighted yet energetic and dynamic palate. It proves straight, focused, and layered in the long and assertive finish. This refined and sharp expression of Felsenberg is superb. 2027-2041. (Aug 2022)"
