95+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2018 Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese ** (White Capsule) is still wild and untamed on the pure and crunchy nose, yet with aeration, it becomes highly delicate, clear and fine, indicating great precision, finesse and elegance. Classy, fresh and pure on the palate, this is an elegant, tight, salty-piquant, very energetic and persistent Würzgarten that still needs some years to age, to soften its phenolic edges and reveal its true character. This is nothing but parity, tension and grip, with no signs of hedonism so far. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink: 2025-2050. (Oct 2020)"

94 points James Suckling: "Some Mosel wines can be very showy, but this dry wine’s strength is its finesse. Very fine, white-peach and nectarine nose with summer-flower overtones. Only medium-bodied, but at once concentrated and delicate, this slowly but inexorably pulls you into the very straight, dry and mineral finish. Drink or hold. (9/16/20)"
