98 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "...very clear and intense, savory, pure and elegant nose of concentrated fruits, including lemon and grapefruit aromas, intertwined with finely flinty notes of crushed slate. Round, lush and generous but also highly delicate and irresistibly savory on the palate, this is a balanced Auslese that is not as lively, bright and saline on the finish as the Wehlener, but it is more textured, richer and possibly also deeper. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork... (May 2023)" 96 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2021er Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) offers a beautiful nose of candied citrusy fruits, almond cream, anise, pineapple, smoke, and fine spices. The wine is very pure and vibrating on the palate, where the light creamy and honeyed elements give way to citrusy fruits. The finish is spicy and very focused, almost racy at this early stage. This is a magnificent dessert wine. 2031-2051. (Dec 2022)"
