92 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2019 Haardt Riesling Trocken AP #3 was the only sample I received from Weingut Müller-Catoir that was sealed under natural cork. Though there are some young vines in the blend here (nine years of age), there are also plenty of older vines that reach up to more than forty years-old. The soils in the vineyards in the village of Haardt are sandstone and the wine comes in at 12.5 percent octane in 2019, with 7.6 grams per liter of acidity and 5.4 grams per liter of residual sugar. The wine is young and pure on the nose, offering up scents of pink grapefruit, tart pear, lovely minerality, dried flowers and a topnote of citrus peel. On the palate the wine is deep, bright and fullish, with a fine core of fruit, zippy acids, excellent focus and cut and a long, mineral-driven and complex finish. This has outstanding backend lift and is really a superb bottle in the making. 2024-2055. (Jul/Aug 2020)"
