97 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "A super-cool and super-mineral dry riesling with stunning precision and racy drive that propel this forward at warp speed. A cornucopia of herbs, citrus zest and berries at the pristine finish. Drink or hold. (10/5/21)"

95 points David Schildknecht (Vinous): "Already on the nose, the savory herbal, meaty and mineral mélange here mouthwateringly reminds me of escargot, not to mention red Burgundies, which is a cause to wonder how such scents and flavors could possibly arise from these grapes. In terms of explicit fruit identity, the most one discerns here is fresh lemon, which however serves for more than enough bright juiciness to animate and refresh through a prodigious finish. There is a combination of underlying richness with spine-tingling electricity – to say nothing of intrigue – that will absorb you for hours (indeed years) if you can afford both the time and the wine. Drink: 2021-2040. (Mar 2023)"

94 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2020er Hipping Riesling, as it is referred to on the consumer label, is a bone-dry wine made from the oldest vines in this parcel and very low yields (only 20 hl/ha). It offers an aromatic and engaging nose of anise, almond cream, tangerine, lime, and a touch of nut and apricot. The wine is straight and vibrating on the hugely fresh, herbal, and lime-driven palate and leaves a touch of tartness which still needs to integrate in the finish. This is a superbly focused expression of dry Riesling in the making. 2028-2040. (Nov 2021)"
