Riesling Hengst Zind-Humbrecht 2023 (750ML)

98 Points, Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com: "Power and purity seem effortlessly interwoven in this densely minerally and incredibly focused dry riesling. The energy and vitality of this medium- to full-bodied wine are off the scale. It really needs time for the citrus and stone fruit aromas to open up, but it’s already very exciting. From the eastern side of this site that faces the Black Forest with shallow and stony soil. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2027." 05/25

95 Points, Anne Krebiehl, Vinous: "The 2023 Riesling Grand Cru Hengst is from a 2016-planted parcel with 9,000 vines per hectare that's steep and facing slightly more east, at the top of the site on slightly deeper soils. This is golden in hue but rather shy on the nose, still keeping its secrets. Much swirling reveals a cool touch of tangerine. The palate is wonderfully fluid, taut, soothing and fresh. Its elongated, serene mouthfeel is all citrus. (Bone-dry) (Drink between 2028-2055)" 04/25
