96 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "A radical masterpiece of Rheinhessen minerality this stunning dry riesling has a really complex citrus, dried herb (sage!) and smoky nose. Packed with flavor, but still so bright and precise, this has a breathtakingly long finish that lights up the sky. Drink or hold. (11/23/20)"

93 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The 2019 Kirchspiel Riesling is pure, precise and flinty on the deep, refined and elegant nose with flinty and chalky lemon notes. Pure and salty on the palate, this is a straight, fresh, crystal clear, very elegant and balanced Riesling with tension and stimulating mineral grip. Complex and sustainable, very salty. Tasted as a sample in May 2020. Drink: 2024-2036. (Aug 2020)"

93 points Falstaff: "Focused, intricate aromatics of light yellow fruit, fine spices, delicate herbs and some blossom. The palate initially offers a nuanced, soft palate, fresh and citrusy. Develops a focused and grippy texture with salty minerality and a finely spiced, long, juicy finish. (11/23/20)"
