95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Wonderfully peachy nose with just a hint of caramelized apple. Lovely succulence on the silky, medium-bodied palate. Very long finish in which the ripeness and wet stone freshness are exactly balanced. Already excellent integration of the restrained grape sweetness. Drink or hold. (11/7/23)"
94 points Anne Krebiehl, MW (Vinous): "The 2022 Riesling Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese is shy, but stone fruit shimmers through; think white peach and golden Mirabelle. The palate falls into step with citrus-edged, golden Mirabelle plums, fresh, almost sorbet-like in their heightened impression. The beauty here lies in restraint and absolutely harmonious balance. This is not much sweeter than a Kabinett, just a little fuller, rounder, but still svelte, elegant, full in flavor, light on its feet and medium sweet only. Wonderful. (Medium) Drink: 2025-2050. (Oct 2023)"
93 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2022er Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese offers a superbly fresh and pure nose of minty herbs, spearmint, white orchard fruits, fine spices, grapefruit, candied lime, and anise. The wine is superbly focused and animating on the fresh and zesty palate. There is great energy and precision. This is a beautiful refreshing and pure Spätlese. 2032-2052. (Dec 2023)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "[$74 list] Lemon-lime candy and tropical fruit flavors turn racy on the rich palate, driven by a laser beam of prickly acidity. Balanced and fresh, with notes of savory crushed herbs and a bitter kiss of white grapefruit pith cleansing the well-defined finish. Drink now through 2042. (3/11/24)"
