The ageing of Riesling in large, old oak casks for several years, was a style with a great tradition at Schloss Johannisberg hundreds of years ago. It was revived in 2017 and this now stands as the absolute pinnacle of Trocken wines produced. Made in tiny quantities and only in outstanding vintages, no scores or reviews yet available for the 2018 – what is sure is that these bottles will be long gone by the time the critics get to review them.

James Suckling (100)Tasting this makes me feel like Goethe is just about to walk in the door! Self-confidently old-fashioned in the way that a 1920s Bentley car or an 1820s Breguet pocket watch is. Yes, you can analyze and note that there’s an oxidative side to it, but the combination of creaminess and silky bone-dryness is like nothing else I can think of. And below the waterline of direct perception is a gigantic structure that drives the mind-blowing finish! Matured for 30 months in neutral wooden casks. Drinkable now, but best from 2024. |

James Suckling (99)Very cool and reserved at the front, but this is an enormously deep and complex wine that has staggering mineral intensity. The lime and oolong-tea freshness effortlessly swallows up the unfermented grape sweetness, as if it didn’t really exist. Some will criticize, saying that this is too radical, but that’s what creates the great excitement! The herbal freshness at the finish is really astounding. Drinkable now, but best from 2023. |

James Suckling (96)The complex nose of sliced pear, white peach and white currant with delicate floral notes pulls you into this very juicy and vibrant Spatlese that leaps and bounds over your palate, in spite of the frank natural grape sweetness. Then comes the radical minerality at the very focused, long and pristine finish. Drink or hold. |

James Suckling (99)The nose of this Spatlese makes me think of 18th century engravings of pear and white peach varieties, but that only hints at the enveloping and astonishingly fine fruit that follows on the palate. A masterpiece of finesse, precision and balance, but even that doesn’t say the most important thing, which is the breathtaking leafy freshness and stony clarity at the stunningly long finish. When will it ever stop? From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. |

James Suckling (97)This is like staring into a deep chasm, yet the discreet mirabelle fruit gives that austere, bone-dry style enough charm to make it really compelling. Enormous crushed-rock minerality, with delicate spice and just a hint of oak on the compact yet sleek palate. This is an uncompromising expression of the Rheingau’s “back to the roots” movement that reveals its greatness at the extremely long and precise finish. Drinkable now, but best from 2025. |

James Suckling (98)Very complex, golden-mirabelle and licorice nose with a lot of flinty complexity. Stunning concentration for the sleek body, but this is still so tightly wound. Ravishing finish, in spite of its noble austerity. Enormous aging potential. Drink or hold. |

Experience the Schloss Schonborn Hattenheimer Pfaffenberg Riesling Trocken Erstes Gewachs 2003, an iconic German Riesling from the Rheingau region, produced by respected wine producer Schloss Schönborn. Commanding its birthright from vineyards dating back to 1349, this vintage offers a unique representation of trocken (dry) Riesling, notable for its remarkable freshness and firm acidity despite its age. Its matured character presents deep, concentrated flavours of ripe apples, lemon zest, mineral tones, and a subtle hint of honey. Aged optimally in large German Oak barrels, it elaborates on the bold characteristics of Schloss Schönborn's sophisticated viticulture, embodying the gentle slopes and mineral-rich soils of the Hattenheimer Pfaffenberg vineyard. Gaining well-deserved ratings in renowned wine publications, the Schloss Schonborn Hattenheimer Pfaffenberg Riesling Trocken Erstes Gewachs 2003 is not merely a wine—it's a testament to centuries-old tradition, unrivalled craftsmanship, and meticulous attention to detail, transcending the ordinary to become an unforgettable experience. |
