92 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Brimming with white peach and fresh mint in the nose. Very bright and juicy with super crisp acidity. Lively, lemony acidity throughout the long, bright finish. Drink now. Screw cap. (8/6/20)"

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "There's just a hint of lime blossom on the nose but the palate of this vibrant kabinett pulsates with piercing lime and lemon flavors. Semisweet in style yet calibrated neatly by racy acidity and a cooling, mineral edge, it's a stately yet irresistibly quaffable sip best now through 2029. Alcohol 10%. (Jul 2021)"

91+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): " The Estate Riesling Kabinett also hails from the Weil family’s vineyards in Kiedrich and Eltville, but in this bottling, some parcels from their top vineyards are also included. The 2019 Kabinett is racy, coming in with 9.4 grams per liter of acidity, balanced with 38.6 grams of sugar and ended up at ten percent alcohol. The wine delivers a lovely aromatic constellation of apple, white cherry, bee pollen, spring flowers, lemon peel and a hint of straw. On the palate the wine is bright, fullish and fairly powerful in style for Kabinett, with a lovely core, impressive mineral undertow, snappy acids and a long, complex and very nicely balanced finish. This is a fascinating version of Kabinett, as its ten percent alcohol makes it a bigger wine than most traditional Kabinetten, but with its high acidity and lovely interplay of soil and fruit, the balance works beautifully. Not a classic example, but a delicious wine in its slightly more powerful guise. 2021-2055. (Mar/Apr 2021)"
