96 Points! The deep yet delicately peachy fruit of this ravishingly beautiful Wachau dry riesling is very hard to resist. Also notes of pink grapefruit and Amalfi lemons. Excellent concentration, but this is also fine and cool. Very long, limey finish that’s so precise and subtle. From organically grown grapes. Vegan. Drink or hold. - JamesSuckling.com

95 Points! A hypnotic nose of allspice, cloves, cinnamon and summer flowers with touches of licorice and wild berries. Superfocused and energetic, this has the kind of concentration and energy that a red wine needs in order to age for decades. However, it also has a ton of berry fruit on the compact, medium-bodied palate. Very fine tannins drive the extremely long, linear finish. Drinkable now but best from 2026. - JamesSuckling.com

95 Points! The 2023 Riesling Pfaffenberg has subtle citrus and a darker aspect that disappears on the palate. The body is zesty, driven and energetic, with stony determination and citrus wings, grapefruit, tangerine and all the tangy stuff. Despite this soaring nature, this is anchored in stone. The 2023 is compelling, strait-laced, precise and oh-so juicy. Wonderfully dry. - Anne Krehbiel MW, Vinous Media
