Wine from Pfalz

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...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: Clear, precise and super-ripe stone fruit aromas along with some stony flavors open the 2013 Pechstein Riesling Auslese. With 10 grams of total acidity, the attack on the palate is racy and mineral and, due to its firm...

Decanter, 95 points: The Jesuitengarten vineyard, previously owned by a Jesuit monastery, was acquired by the Jordan family in 1793. It is one of the top sites in Pfalz, boasting soil which is absolutely crammed with minerals. The grapes are...

jamessuckling.com, 93 points: Ripe, concentrated and elegant, this has impressive chalky minerality on the long finish. Drink or hold (a decade should be no problem). Screw cap closure.

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, 91 points: The bouquet of peach and fresh herbs is enticing, and although the palate is as generous and juicy as it should be for this top site, there's a hint of warmth from the alcohol that pulls on the brakes at the finish.

Wine Spectator, 94 points: This fruity version is filled with dark currant, white raspberry and fresh-cut nectarine flavors that are mouthwatering and carry a spicy richness. Offers engaging minerality, leading to an elegant finish that is sculpted...

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...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Intensely golden in color, the 2014 Haardter Herzog Rieslaner Beerenauslese shows a very intense, super ripe, concentrated, spicy aroma with iodine and caramel aromas, as well as some herbal flavors. Rich and velvety in...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2015 Siebeldinger Im Sonnenschein Riesling trocken GG offers a super clear and precise bouquet with crushed stones, chalk and ripe pineapple aromas. Dense, piquant and very mineral on the palate, this...

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, 93 points: 93+ The 2014 Siebeldinger Im Sonnenschein Riesling trocken GG is pure, very clear and fresh; there are flinty notes and ripe, concentrated but very discreet white and yellow fruit aromas. Grown on Muschelkalk soils and...

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...
