95 points James Suckling
A stunning single-vineyard dry riesling with apricot and mango aromas plus a wonderful harmony of ripeness and freshness on the generous and concentrated palate. The fine tannins and mineral acidity at the finish support this beautifully. So much apricot character and citrusy freshness at the very long finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

From 45+-year-old vines on yellow colored sandstone soils, the 2021 Bürgergarten Riesling VDP. Erste Lage reveals dense and fully ripe fruit with clear, refreshingly mineral, lemon and herbal notes. It is pretty stony on the nose and even with iodine notes. Full-bodied, lush and crystalline on the palate, this is an elegant and balanced dry Riesling with fine mineral grip and acidity. The finish is long, intense and powerful yet also fine and elegant and provided with stimulating salinity and finesse. This is a classic from a cool vintage and stylistically reminiscent of Rieslings from the 1990s (yet not from Catoir, a style on its own at that time). 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork stopper. Tasted in December 2022.
