96 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Bernkasteler Doctor Riesling Spätlese (Auction) is fabulously clear, fresh, flinty and concentrated on the precise and coolish nose with its perfect Riesling aromas. Round, piquant and lively on the palate, with great finesse and a delicious mouthfeel, this is a sensual, lush and beautifully balanced Spätlese with a salty-piquant and highly stimulating finish. This is one of the finest and most filigreed yet tensioned and stimulating Spätlesen that have been bottled in the Mosel Valley from the 2019 vintage. Tasted at the domain in September 2020. Drink: 2020-2050. (Oct 2020)"
96 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 37 20. The 2019er Bernkasteler Doctor Riesling Spätlese comes from extremely old un-grafted vines and was fermented down to fully sweet levels of residual sugar. It offers a hugely complex and subtle nose made of whipped cream, melon, grapefruit zest, vineyard peach, pear, a hint of apricot blossom, cassis, and fine spices, all wrapped into some smoky and herbal scents. The wine starts off on the suave side on the richly creamy but hugely multi-layered palate and leaves a great sense of tension in the finish. The aftertaste combines the suave richness of an Auslese with the juiciness of a Spätlese. There is still a touch of residual sugar in need of integration, and one will then be left with a show-stopping expression of Doctor sweet wine. 2034-2069. (Aug 2020)"
