96 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Riesling Bernkasteler Badstube Auslese * (Green Capsule) is clear, deep and intense on the concentrated, mineral and lemon-scented nose that shows bright and fresh fruit and very fine broken slate aromas. Full-bodied, very intense and lush, with sweet fruit, this is an enormously salty, complex, very long, energetic and tensioned Badstube with a hint of caramel on the finessed and crystalline finish that also reveals laser-sharp but ripe acidity. The finish is very intense and concentrated but savory and stimulating. This Riesling is like a bright laser beam! But it is also very intense and concentrated. A promising wine that is made to be cellared for a minimum of 10 to 15 years. 10.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 64 21 in July 2022. (8/25/22)"
95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "The very striking, cool and minty nose makes it difficult to resist setting out on the much longer adventure through the magic kingdom of cool on the sleek and very refined palate. Ends with a no less striking, mint and mineral finish. Drink or hold. (11/10/22)"
