95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Brimming with Asian pear, this is simultaneously very succulent and very elegant, some fine tannins keeping the finish of this beauty dry and straight, so that the minerals can dance on your palate. Only moderate acidity and, for this reason, food-friendly without further aging. Drink or hold. (3/9/21)"
94 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Dhroner Hofberg Riesling GD opens pretty intense and floral on the multilayered, stony and flinty/herbal nose that also reveals some mirabelle aromas. Crystalline and silky on the palate, this is a very intense, concentrated, firmly structured and persistent Hofeberg Riesling with a long and dense finish. This is one of the finest 2019s form Stefan Steinmetz, and I recommend cellaring it for at least 5-7 years. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink: 2025-2045. (Oct 2020)"
93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 21 20. The 2019er Dhroner Hofberg Riesling 'GD' (standing for Grosser Dhroner) is a just off-dry wine (with 12 g/l of residual sugar) made from fruit picked in the classical part of the vineyard. It offers a gorgeous nose made of white peach, elderflower, ginger, smoky elements, a hint of mango, and spices. The wine is nicely juicy and superbly playful on the fruity and spicy palate, and leaves a gorgeously chalky feel in the currently off-dry tasting finish. This gorgeous Riesling will be a cracker at maturity, in 6-8 years, once the sweetness will have melted away. 2026-2034. (Aug 2020)"
