98 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Gigantic ripeness and density for a 2021 dry riesling, this smashes the lean and tart mold of the vintage as it it were nothing. Amazing textural complexity on the super-concentrated palate, the chalky-mineral and Amalfi-lemon freshness rolling over the finish like an Alpine avalanche. Just beginning to open up. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drinkable now, but best from 2023. (9/27/22)" 94 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The Lorcher Riesling 2021 Krone offers a fascinatingly pure, elegant, intense and aromatic bouquet of crushed (flint and lime) stones intermingled with notes of citrus fruits and, initially, also green pimientos. Round and elegant on the palate, with fine and saline acidity, this is a textured yet highly refined and finessed Riesling with the textural precision of chalk and the finessed acidity of slate. There are fine tannins here as well. After aeration, the chalky features came out more prominently and gave a silky texture with a greenish phenolic grip on the salty finish. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in November 2022. Drink: 2026-2050. (12/30/22)"
