Stephen Brook | Muted nose, ripe citrus and pear. The attack is very ripe, and there seems to be a trace of sweetness. There is some balancing acidity, but overall it’s attractive but simple, without much precision or complexity. Highly drinkable, but not structured or persistent. | 87
Andrew Jefford | Certainly the palest wine of its flight of six: pale steel-gold with some spritz in the glass. Scents of hyacinth and jonquil and sappy plant growth. Zesty, light, refreshing, and spritzy: a glittery thirst-quenching Riesling with ample dessert apple and tangerine and some of those same floral notes the aromatic profile had sketched out. Delicious, mouthwatering stuff for relatively quick drinking. | 89
Stephan Reinhardt | Bright, pretty pale color, some CO2. Clearly Riesling on the nose, with bright and concentrated yet very precise and well-defined white and yellow-fleshed fruit aromas that are intertwined with stony-chalky flavors and even some notes of rust and iron. Reductive, very precise and refreshing style. Lush and juicy on the palate, with intensity, finesse, and a delicate but sustainable mineral finesse and tension this is a highly delicate, balanced, and elegant dry Riesling, with a long and juicy finish. A gorgeous wine, with an immense aging capacity. Persistently salty. | 94
