James Suckling: 96 Points

Stunning nose of Amalfi lemon, yellow peach and mirabelle. Very straight and sleek, with serious stony minerality and enough creaminess wrapped around this to prevent the wine from feeling austere at any point. Spot-on balance through the very long and linear finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

Wine Advocate: 95 Points

The 2020 Riesling Grand Cru Schlossberg is another beautifully pure and refined, terroir-driven Riesling from the Barthelmé family. Grapes were picked in Kirrenbourg, Tiefenthal and Bix, and it opens richer and darker-toned on the nose than the delicate cousin from the Wineck-Schlossberg. Ripe peach and mango aromas intertwined with finely crushed granite notes on the delicately flinty but also generously aromatic bouquet lead to a full-bodied, rich and elegant, very fine but also intense and powerful palate with sustainable structure built by fine phenols and fine acidity caused by a well-weathered granite terroir. All this flows into a long, complex and saline finish that indicates great aging potential of this classic and harmonious, lush and superbly balanced 2020 Schlossberg. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2022.
