Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Riesling Nahesteiner is deep and concentrated on the nose, showing ripe and matured stone fruit aromas intertwined with flinty and finely phenolic notes. Full-bodied, intense and compact on the palate, this is a rich, ripe and elegant, crystalline and textured Riesling with a long, dense and compact finish.

Wine Enthusiast
Bright and juicy, this wine has prominent notes of pear, elderflower and cardamom. Glossy and smooth, the wine features an inviting profile and mouthwatering finish.
Riesling possesses a remarkable ability to reflect the character of wherever it is grown while still maintaining its identity. A regal variety of incredible purity and precision, this versatile grape can be just as enjoyable dry or sweet, young or old, still or sparkling and can age longer than nearly any other white variety. Somm Secret—Given how difficult it is to discern the level of sweetness in a Riesling from the label, here are some clues to find the dry ones. First, look for the world “trocken.” (“Halbtrocken” or “feinherb” mean off-dry.) Also a higher abv usually indicates a drier Riesling.
