Description
Stephan Reinhardt awarded this wine a rating of 92-93 points: 'Sourced from the younger, 15- to 35-year-old vines ... super clear, deep and flinty ... [with] super precise and well concentrated citrus fruits ... A great dry Riesling.' Reinhardt suggested a drinking window extending through 2036. (robertparker.com, Aug. 31, 2017)

Tasting Notes
Although this is still very young it begins dramatically with an intensely herbal and white fruits nose. Mineral power kicks in on the palate and drives it forward at a brisk clip. A slightly austere finish, but one that's full of stony character and is very long and bright. Drink now. Score - 94. (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Oct. 1, 2017)
