wine enthusiast 88 pts"A crystalline touch of sugar accents pristine white grapefruit and peach in this zippy off-dry Riesling. Lemon-lime acidity and just a touch of crushed minerality lend edge to this effortlessly easy-drinking wine. A lovely aperitif or summer sip to enjoy now–2023. - Anna LEE C. IIJIMA"

2016 Matheus Piesporter Goldtropfchen Riesling Kabinett - 90 PTS - WE

wine enthusiast 90 pts"Buoyant primary aromas of sunny peach and tangerine are juxtaposed against deep reverberating slate and flint in this gorgeously balanced Kabinett. It's lusciously textured but spine-tingling with acidity. The finish is long, lingering on warm spice tones. Drink now through 2020."
