97 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): "There’s nothing obvious about this intensely spicy gewurz. In fact, studying the aromas is like solving an intricate puzzle. Very powerful and creamy with succulent tropical-fruit character, the bold minerality balancing the touch of sweetness. The palate is no less intriguing, thanks to the cool depths that are ever more revealed on the very refined finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (7/19/21)"

95 points Yohan Castaing (Decanter): "Both fruity and spicy, this Gewurztraminer from Hengst Grand Cru offers generosity, freshness, and a stunning complexity. Very pleasant. We can believe that this wine will benefit from several years of cellaring. Perfectly balanced, the palate is tense and precise, with a calcareous texture that brings a linear finish. Slightly tannic, the wine is racy and superb! Keep it 10 years or more, and it will be even more impressive. Drinking Window: 2030-2055. Alcohol 13.4%. (Sep 2021)"
