99 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "A totally astonishing dry Mosel wine that takes you to the end of the world, then lets you look back at the geological mysteries of its origin. In spite of the ravishing, exotic fruit aromas, this is like a prima ballerina á point. Stunning finesse! Drink or hold. (9/23/21)"

94 points Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2020er Piesporter Treppchen Riesling 'von den Terrassen' is a legally dry wine (with 7 g/l of residual sugar) picked on 90-year-old vines in the steep-hill “vor dem Berg” sector of the vineyard situated just next to the Wintricher hill. It offers a beautifully aromatic yet also quite subtle nose made of mint, vineyard peach, pear, aniseed herbs, a dash of whipped cream, and smoke. The wine proves smooth rather than bone-dry on the palate and leaves a superbly fruity feel in the long and airy finish. The aftertaste is all about floral elements, vineyard peach, herbs, and fine spices. We would opt to wait a little bit before cracking open any bottle in order to give the wine the chance to firm up. It will then truly shine. 2030-2040. (Nov 2021)"
