99 points/'Top 100 Wines of 2024 (#8),' James Suckling: "Restrained apricot peel, fairly neutral yet classy, but with a floral bouquet that opens up. The attack is full and impressively vibrant, almost electric, with filigreed elegance and a silky, weighted palate. Long and polished. This is incredible. Drink now or hold to achieve greater complexity. (5/30/24)"
95 points/'#95 Top 100 Wines of 2024,' Eric Guido (Vinous): "[$57 list] The 2021 Pinot Bianco Riserva Vorberg is youthfully coiled, as an airy blend of wild herbs and dried flowers gives way to young peach and apricot. This is seamlessly silky and serene on the palate, nearly oily in feel, with brisk acidity to balance and depths of ripe orchard fruits and mineral tones that saturate. The balance is perfect, lightly tannic and full of tension with a lemony concentration that puckers the cheeks as minty herbal tones fade. Green apple notes add a crunchy sensation toward the close. This fantastic rendition of Vorberg will thrive in a cold cellar. Drink: 2026-2034. (Mar 2024)"
95 points/'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "[$57 list] Vorberg is one of the world's great Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blancs) and opens with a fragrant aroma of ripe pear, green apple, and hints of almond. On the palate, it is vibrant with an interplay of citrus and stone fruit, carried by a refreshing acidity. The wine culminates in a textured finish that spans across cuisines. Drink now–2040. Drink: 14%. (May 2024)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "[$57 list] An elegant, fine-knit white, with density to the layers of yellow plum, melon rind, chamomile and lemon wax flavors. Offering a lightly chalky texture and mouthwatering acidity, this is long and supple, with grapefruit zest, milled pink peppercorn and mineral hints on the finish. Drink now through 2031. (5/31/24)"
