White Wine from Germany

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 90 points: This village bottling largely from gravel and cobblestone sites is another firm, clear, straight, adamantly dry Franzen Riesling, like its generic “underling.” Peach, apricot and lemon are laced with ginger, nutmeg, sage...

Wine Spectator, 94 points: Firm and focused, this is filled with powerful flavors of dark currant, white raspberry, melon and red peach, all loaded with minerality. Finely textured overall, with an explosively fresh finish of tarragon and slate...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: From 50 plus year old vines on yellow Buntsandstein soils with a sandy loam layer, the 2014 Haardter Bürgergarten Riesling Trocken intertwines its deep and precise fruit aromas with earthy flavors on the nose to migrate...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: 94+ Slightly reduced on the clear, mineral and precisely depicted nose, at the moment the sweet 2013 Zeltinger Sonnenuhr Spätlese shows hints of rather darker fruits along with lemon and orange flavors. The wine is rich...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2015 Deidesheimer Mäusehöhle Riesling (AP 2216) opens with a pure and refreshing, rather coolish aroma (compared to the Leinshöhle) of ripe yellow fruits intertwined with stony aromas. Round, fresh and elegant on the...
