Parker review
The 2021 Riesling Scharzhofberger (White Capsule) opens with a fascinating, pure, fresh and intense, ethereal or aerial nose with a concentrated core of ripe, even yellow fruits but also the merciless mineral expression of the Scharzhofberg. Round, refined and highly elegant on the palate, this is a powerful and very dense, super complex and concentrated, enormously saline and finely tannic Scharzhofberger with a long, intense and again powerful, still slightly bitter finish with tonic lemon juice notes on the aftertaste. It's a terrific dry Scharzhofberger that is sold as Qualitätswein without Prädikat Auslese.
Press
Antonio Galloni's Vinous.com: 98/100 The 2021 Riesling Scharzhofberger *** White Capsule opens with a veil of smoky lemon, tender, pure and slaty. The palate vibrates with citrus and finesse. It dances and pirouettes on tip-toe yet is anchored in rock. A vivid thread of acidity that is all about luminosity brings absolute lightness and depth to a head. It is a contradiction that something so tender can be so profound, so concentrated. Extraordinary, long, supremely fine and elegant. Eternal ! (Bone-dry)
