White Wine from Pfalz

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: As bright as a supernova, this is an extraordinary wine that makes me dream of goose liver and roquefort cheese. Like peach-essence with a ton of lemon zest, this is staggeringly concentrated, but so pure and clean...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: This is like a top GG, but for a friendly price. Very deep and complex wine with power that is totally underplayed. The balance is near perfect and the finish is super-long. From organically grown grapes. Long aging...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A stunning, bone-dry riesling for this moderate price level! Fine nose of sliced pears and honeysuckle. Stunning freshness and purity on the medium-full palate. The finish is subtlety reminiscent of Mosel. From...

Wine Spectator, 95 points: Offers rapierlike focus and acidity to the concentrated and explosively fruity green apple, white cherry and jasmine flavors. Dried sage and chamomile notes linger on the powerful, well-structured finish, showing some...

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...

Vinous, 96 points: Sage, marjoram and white pepper practically assault the nose in a fashion that signals “Pechstein” before it suggests “nobly sweet,” although hints of candied lime and glazed pineapple do anticipate the ennobled, sweet...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Made from Riesling grown in the heat-retaining basalt soils of the Pechstein vineyard, this dry, intensely mineral wine balances nerve and tension and against luscious white peach and yellow-cherry flavors. It's silky and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Intense yellow-golden in color, the 2014 Haardter Herzog Rieslaner Auslese shows a very clear and concentrated, super ripe but also refreshing, yellow-fleshed fruit aroma on the nose. Sweet, lush and light on the elegant...

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...

jamessuckling.com, 92 points: The ripe-pear nose is very enticing, and although this is a substantial and juicy dry riesling, the mineral touch on the finish lifts the full body, and the elegant acidity gives it some polish.

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: Mind-boggling purity and brilliance make the enormously concentrated mango, papaya and dried-apricot aromas light up like fireworks in the sky. What a breathtaking finish. Sure you can drink it now, but long experience...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2015 Deidesheimer Langenmorgen Riesling trocken GG shows a very clear and coolish nose, with delicate lemon peel aromas and smoky flavors of wet stones. Lean, compact and very elegant on the palate, with a rich and...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: A super-elegant Auslese with stunning mango aromas. If you're not afraid of acidity then this wine will light your fire. Stunning brilliance at the very long straight finish. Drink or hold a long as you like. Very limited...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Another dry riesling from Bassermann-Jordan that has the concentration and elegance of a GG (i.e. Grand Cru quality), but with a very appealing light touch on the long finish. Drink or hold through 2030. Screw cap...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: 94+ Intense citrus-colored and almost golden, the wild-fermented 2013 Hattenheimer Wisselbrunnen Riesling trocken GG is very rich and creamy on the somewhat untamed nose showing yeast and lime flavors along with...
