jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Stunning nectarine, peach and papaya character, together with lovely succulence and enormous vitality, make this a breathtaking sweet Spätlese with a finish that’s straight as a laser beam and super-clean. From...

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: Stand back for the arrival of a giant! Super-fresh nectarine, vanilla and Thai-basil aromas that don't leave you in any doubt that this is a very remarkable dry riesling. Then the tidal wave of minerality comes through at...

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, 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...

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...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The NV von Buhl Reserve Brut is based on two-thirds Pinot Blanc and one-third Chardonnay. The sparkling wine displays a bright golden color and opens with an intense, fresh and elegant bouquet with lemon aromas intermixed...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: At this early stage, the citrus colored 2013 Forster Ungeheuer Riesling trocken GG (with lime green reflections) seems to be von Winning's most impressive Riesling of the vintage. Intense, ripe and piquant fruit aromas of...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Has extraordinary aging potential. Extremely backward, but superbly concentrated, with heady aromas of freshly crushed grapes, dry peaches and honey. Full-bodied and very sweet, with masses of spicy lemon and honey...

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...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Christmann's iconic 2014 Konigsbacher Idig Riesling trocken GG is pure, intense, fresh, and displays chalk and lemon flavors on the concentrated, complex nose. Full-bodied and round on the palate, very elegant, intense...

Vinous, 90 points: Subdued on the nose compared with its generic counterpart, this ultimately proves both more rarefied and more engaging. Juicy lime and grapefruit are suffused with basil and mint, with hints of blackcurrant emerging on a...

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...

jamessuckling.com, 92 points: Wonderful pink-grapefruit and muscat nose that bowls you over. So joyful and really rather subtle for a seriously aromatic grape variety. Very bright finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

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, 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...
