  May 8, 2022 - Ganz ok, teile die Meinung, dass Schloß Johannisberg überbewertet ist, aber dieser Wein ist ok, schlank, mineralisch, leichte Petrolnote

  December 22, 2019 - Not a fan of Schloss Johannisberg; my perception for quite some time has been that they are a highly effective marketing and sales machine that excels at developing and exploiting the brand's international standing, but not quite so good at, well, making wine.
  
  Nevertheless, being an optimist I was ready to throw all my preconceptions in the bin and wholly enjoy this one. The scent was quite promising - although unusual - with punch, however in the mouth this was so empty that I found it hard to believe and thus took a number of more sips. It didn't help.
  
  So this is pretty basic quality, no real negatives but nothing at all that would make one want to drink it either. This is the quality one gets from the mid-level Rheingau producers for 7-8 EUR and from the unknown ones for 4-5; I don't even want to know what this gelblack cost.

  Pretty color, well balanced, minerally tasting wine. A cut above some of the rather sour and simple stuff tasted at the various "Strausswirtschaften"
  Everybody in the group liked it.

  Pas un super Q/P*$$
