95+ points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Bernkasteler Lay Auslese opens with a clear, intense and fascinating floral bouquet with (honey) blossom aromas intermingled with refreshing mineral notes of crushed stones. Round and mouth-filling yet very fine and elegant on the palate, this is a weightless Auslese with savory, crystalline and precise acidity that carries this beautifully digestible Auslese to a fine and aromatic finish. 7% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 18 21in July 2022. Drink: 2025-2070. (Aug 2022)"
93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2020er Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Auslese offers a gorgeous and superbly complex nose of almond cream, minty herbs, smoke, white flowers, bergamot, and smoke. The wine proves delicately juicy and sweet on the refined and almost light-weighted palate. Some zesty and spicy elements come through in the long finish to tickle to otherwise ripe and honeyed flavors of peach, pear, and apricot. It still proves on the sweet side and will require at least a full decade to reveal its true colors. 2030-2050. (Nov 2021)"
