94-96 points Anne Krebiehl, MW (Vinous): "[$130 list] The 2022 Riesling Westhofener Brunnenhäuschen Grosses Gewächs abuts the Morstein, but it is slightly more elevated with its limestone overlaid with terra rossa rich in iron oxide. Flinty reduction still holds sway on the nose. However, the palate comes with a smooth, serene and gentle texture of lemon zest bedded on soft, pillowy yeast, yet with many directions and zing, driving forward with gentle force. The finish tapers to beautiful, lemon-pervaded slenderness. The phenolic grip manifests on the finish with beautiful finesse and zesty, citric definition. The 2022 is a lovely and intriguing mix of obliqueness and directness. It's very long and very fine in the face of 2022. Wow. (Bone-dry) Drink: 2028-2050. (Sep 2023)"
94 points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 18 23. The 2022er Brunnenhäuschen Westhofen Riesling GG, as it is referred to on the front label, displays a gorgeously smoky, spicy, and herbal nose of aniseed, thyme, rosemary, smoke, spearmint, a hint of pineapple, and acacia. The wine has great presence and intensity on the well-structured and playful palate. The finish is beautifully long, tight, and energetic, and the after-taste is all about spices and fine zest. This gorgeous dry Riesling combines finesse with intensity. 2028-2042. (Sep 2023)"
