94 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Wonderful ripeness to the fruit, which ranges from peach to melon, as well as a lovely fresh-mint note. Very classic and precisely balanced, the natural grape sweetness right in the background. Long and fresh, wet-stone finish. Drink or hold. (9/23/21)"
93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 10 21. The 2020er Maximin Grünhäuser Abtsberg Riesling Kabinett was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar. It offers a gorgeous nose of white flowers, mint, cassis, whipped cream, lavender, orange blossom, smoke, and grilled spices. The wine proves superbly delicate and finely juicy on the palate, where the fruit has an extra ripeness level (not unlike that of a Spätlese in complexity and presence), yet the focus and balance truly remain at Kabinett level. The finish is superbly persistent. Only a touch of creaminess in the aftertaste needs to melt away, something which will happen in a decade or so. This is a great Kabinett in the making! 2030-2050. (Jul 2021)"
92 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The von Schubert family’s 2020 Kabinett AP #10 from the beautiful Abtsberg vineyard also comes in at a classic 7.5 percent alcohol in this vintage. It delivers a refined, youthful bouquet of fresh lime, tart pear, salty slate minerality, citrus peel, gentle mossiness, cress, and a topnote of elder flowers. On the palate the wine is bright, medium-full and beautifully balanced, with a fine core, excellent soil signature and bounce, zesty acids and a long, focused and complex finish. This is a slightly bigger version of Kabinett than the Herrenberg this year, but it still retains its Prädikat’s aesthetic sensibilities. 2025-2065. (Jan/Feb 2022)"
