95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Deep stone-fruit and citrus aromas with some blossom notes. Stunning balance of ripe yet finely nuanced fruit and elegant acidity that then tightens to a long and pointed mineral finish that takes your breath away. Drink or hold. (9/23/21)"

93 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "Müller-Catoir’s 2020 Bürgergarten Riesling Trocken AP #13 is a really lovely bottle, showing a refined synthesis of ripe fruit tones and a lovely soil signature from the sandstone of this vineyard. The wine comes in at 12.5 percent octane this year, with 3.9 grams per liter of residual sugar and acids of 6.8 grams per liter. The bouquet is deep and expressive, jumping from the glass in a mix of sweet grapefruit, tangerine, lemongrass, a lovely base of salty soil tones, citrus peel and a nice topnote of wild yeasts. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a superb core of fruit, good mineral undertow, a good chassis of acidity and a long, very well-balanced finish. This is approachable out of the blocks, but still a young wine and five or six years in the cellar will pay lovely dividends. Fine juice. 2026-2065+. (Jan/Feb 2022)"
