95 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2019 Badstube Spätlese from Katarina Prüm is just gorgeous right out of the blocks. The bouquet is bright, complex, gently exotic and has a sense of salinity I associate with good dry extract. It delivers a beautiful mélange of comice pear, lemon, casaba melon, salty slate minerality, bee pollen, orange blossoms and a lovely touch of citrus zest in the upper register. On the palate the wine is vibrant, medium-full and gorgeously defined by its underlying slate, with a pretty core, a lovely girdle of acidity, excellent focus and grip and a long, complex and weightless finish. This is stunning! 2021-2065+. (Jan/Feb 2021)"
95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "This Spätlese is so pristine, the white peach and white currant so enticing. At once very succulent and very fresh, this leaps and bounds over the palate, the finish long and graceful. Where is the parma ham and the fresh spring vegetables? Drink or hold. (9/23/21)"
93 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Bernkasteler Badstube Spätlese opens with a clear and elegant tropical-scented bouquet of mangos, passion fruit and figs along with delicately flinty slate aromas. Round and crystalline on the palate, this is a juicy, salty-piquant and grippy Spätlese with a long, intense, well-structured finish. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink: 2025-2050. (Oct 2020)"
92 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2019er Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Spätlese offers an attractive and aromatic nose of vineyard peach, smoke, laurel, candied grapefruit, and herbs. Juicy yellow fruits with even a touch of honeyed elements make for a smooth and delicate feel on the ripe palate. The wine leaves one with a great playful and elegant feel in the nicely long finish, and a superb lightness in the aftertaste. This is a delicately juicy Spätlese in the making. 2027-2039. (Oct 2020)"
