94+/100Stephan Reinhardt,Robert Parker Wine Advocate
From the same soils as the Halenberg but later ripening due to a lack of thermal updraft, the 2021 Monzinger Niederberg 1G is deep, coolish and more slatey on the nose that also reveals some pure and refreshing dashes of lemon juice. It is savory and intense in its round but tart grapefruit notes and very precise and nicely bitter (or tart) on the finish. This is another pure, straight and linear dry Riesling that is still bloody young but will turn out as another great 2021 at Schonleberbut this will take four, five or maybe even more years. There are fine tannins on the finish. Natural cork. 12% stated alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in August 2022.
