96 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Still very youthful and a bit closed, but the special smokiness and flintiness of this great vineyard is already very clear. Diamond-bright and laser-beam straight, this is almost too racy and energetic, but it’s so polished that this is absolutely no problem. Noble austerity at the very long finish. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drinkable now, but best from 2023. (8/8/22)" 95-96 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "From a 40-ar-plot with old vines in the top part of the porphyry cru, the 2021 Kupfergrube GG offers a very clear, precise and aromatic but also flinty bouquet with yellow-fleshed stone fruit aromas intertwined with notes of crushed stones. On the palate, this is a round and juicy yet also very elegant and delicate Riesling with great finesse and elegance but also a hedonistic character paired with stimulating salinity and crunchy structural elements. A gorgeous wine. Tasted as a sample at the domaine in July 2022. Drink: 2022-2050. (Aug 2022)"
95 points Fine Wine Review: "Pure, intense, deep, energetic, mineral. (8/22/22)"
94 points Ulrich Sautter (Falstaff): "The aroma is yeasty, peppery, with notes of leafy green, caraway and juniper. On the palate, the wine has a striking tension, acidity, phenolics and tactile-mineral notes form a block of extract that guarantees long-lasting refinement. Alcohol 12.5%. (11/21/22)"
