98 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "This super-fragrant and super-elegant pinot noir shows what greatness and beauty the very best winemakers of Germany are now achieving with this grape. The combination of concentration, finesse and and freshness is already compelling, and the wine is only just beginning to spread its wide wings. Then, when you think you understand all of this, the fine tannins gently build to a crescendo at the almost endless finish. And yet, even there, the whole seems so delicate. Drink from release.

97 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2022 Spätburgunder Schlossberg GG is airy, ethereal and beautiful on the nose and the essence of Pinot and Schlossberg rather than materialized or textured wine, with ripe cherries, red berries, woodruff, underwood, toast, redcurrant, crushed stones and wet earth. The wine cannot become greater on the palate than it is on the nose you think, and then you take a sip and get a silky, velvety texture, great intensity and energy, fleshy, now materialized fruit, even sensuality, crunchy tannins and a long, intense yet ethereal umami finish. Absolutely fabulous. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024. Drink: 2029-2050. (10/31/24)"
