92+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The Feinherb designation appears on the back label for this bottling in 2020. The wine is twelve percent alcohol, but I do not have the figures for sugars and acids this year. The bouquet here is deep and complex, wafting from the glass in a mix of tart orange, fresh lime, a touch of pear, lovely botanicals, a superb undertow of slate and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and zesty, with a good core, excellent mineral drive and grip, very good acids and a long, really quite dry finish. I have to imagine that the acidity here is over eight grams per liter, as the sensation of residual sweetness here is not particularly strong and is eaten up by the lovely acids. The textural improvement on the palate when one moves from a screwcapped wine to one sealed under natural cork cannot be overstated. Fine juice. 2028-2075. (Jan/Feb 2022)"
91 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "An excellent starting point with Mosel riesling, this medium-bodied wine is dry enough for the dining table. So crisp and refreshing, with plenty of white-fruit aromas and lemony acidity. Drink now. Screw cap. (8/4/21)"
