95 points Anne Krebiehl, MW (Wine Enthusiast): "[$61/750ml list] Lifted aromas of chamomile and dried apple carry edges of wet hay and earth on the nose. The palate brings all of these notions into a concentrated core with lemony verve. It's a dry, intense Riesling that has only just started to unfold. While delicious now, it will continue to evolve well through 2040. Alcohol 14%. (Nov 2019)"

93 points James Suckling: "There’s a touch of some tee tree oil here, as well as petrol, candied lemons and apricots. The palate is very powerful indeed with fleshy, apricot-tart notes, driven along by steely acidity, which helps keep this in check. Long and racy. Drink now. (7/8/19)"
