95 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "Complex nose of dried peach and very ripe melon with notes of mint and basil. Sleek, but seriously structured, leaping and bounding over the palate thanks to the tremendous vibrancy. Very straight and pristine finish in spite of the generous unfermented grape sweetness. Limited production. Drink or hold. (11/20/22)"
93+ points Mosel Fine Wines: "AP: 05 22. The 2021er Saarburger Rausch Riesling Spätlese is a fruity-styled wine with a beautiful nose made of apple, pear, citrusy fruits, pineapple, saffron, white pepper, herbs, dill, and smoke. The wine develops a telltale balance of Spätlese with creaminess, fruitiness, and herbal elements on the wonderfully light-footed palate. The finish is beautifully airy and yet remarkably finely chiseled and bright. This beautiful Spätlese has even some upside as it develops its definition with age! 2029-2041. (Jun 2022)"
