"As is always the case, the 2012 Hubacker Grosses Gewächs, with its predominantly red soils, is quite different in profile from the chalky Kirchspiel or Morstein, but in its own way it is every bit as magical as those two wines in this great Keller vintage. The glorious bouquet is a mix of blood orange, grapefruit, orange peel, incipient notes of petrol, beautifully complex soil tones, a touch of fresh rosemary and a topnote of lemongrass. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and rock solid at the core, with ripe, zesty acidity, great focus and balance and a very, very long, supremely elegant finish. In some vintages the Hubacker can be the most broad-shouldered of the Keller GG lineup and perhaps not quite as filigreed as a result, but this is emphatically not the case in the 2012 vintage, where the wine is brilliantly refined and complete. Great, great juice! 2020-2060."

92 Joel Payne - Vinous Media

"Subtle aromas of white peach, pine nuts and lime, with a hint of persimmon. Crisp structure, delicate weight and invigorating nectarine fruit animate the palate. Salty minerality provides charming length. This is the most feminine of the estate's dry rieslings and one of the most approachable in its youth."
