96 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "The complex nose of sliced pear, white peach and white currant with delicate floral notes pulls you into this very juicy and vibrant Spatlese that leaps and bounds over your palate, in spite of the frank natural grape sweetness. Then comes the radical minerality at the very focused, long and pristine finish. Drink or hold. (7/12/22)" 94 points Falstaff Guide: "A tinge of overripeness in the fruit, super mineral, very peppery, stony material. On the palate pervasive acidity and rich yet restrained sweetness, very mineral, salty, finesse and elegance, tension and freshness dominate and almost make you forget the sweetness. (11/21/22)"
93 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2021 Schloss Johannisberg Grünlack Riesling Spätlese is a pure, piquant and intensely aromatic yet refreshing and bright Rheingau classic from the bottom of the slope, even though the wine has an alpine character. On the palate, this is a pretty sweet yet piquant, precise and lush Spätlese with a cleansing and stimulating, saline and salivating finish. 8% stated alcohol with 89 grams per liter of residual sugar. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022. Drink: 2022-2070. (Aug 2022)"
