93 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2017 Ried Rossberg Morillon is from a very calcareous marl soil rich in iron and manganese. Vinified in old Burgundian pièces, this is a deep, rich and round, wonderfully aromatic yet pure and flinty Chardonnay/Pinot Blanc blend with very fine tannins and a very elegant and lush texture. The finish is powerful yet pure and persistently salty, with lots of mineral tension and grip. This is an excellent, perfectly balanced but thrilling white whose lush and iodine character is a bit like a Jura wine. Tasted in May 2019. (Oct 2019)"
93 points Falstaff: "Bright yellow-green, silver reflections. Delicate floral touch, fine yellow tropical fruit, nuances of hibiscus, candied orange zest. Full-bodied, elegant, white stone fruit, structure rich in finesse, salty-mineral finish, lingers, a multi-faceted companion at the table. (6/12/19)"
