"The 2024 Riesling Alte Reben was made from 50- to 70-year-old vines in the Longuicher Herrenberg and Leiwener Klostergarten. A lemon-scented Mirabelle sorbet aroma makes for a most inviting and enticing nose. Suppleness is central on the palate. The Mirabelle sorbet turns into creaminess, with all its sunny, lemony fruit. It shines with freshness and ripeness while remaining beautifully svelte. This Riesling is a lovely expression of 2024. Dry"

"An excellent introduction to high-end dry Mosel riesling. This has stacks of slate character, with white peaches and crisp pear fruit. Medium-bodied with notes of white flowers, baking spices and rose hips. Long, structured finish with a stony intensity, but almost no sense of weight. From up to 70-year-old vines. Vegan. Drink or hold."

"The 2023 Riesling Alte Reben, picked in the Longuicher Herrenberg and Leiwener Klostergarten from vines 50 and 70 years old, respectively, offers a lovely reduction that crackles with flint on the nose, opening into creamy peach. The concentrated palate has the estate-typical fill with a vivid zestiness that elongates and guides it forward despite its undoubted generosity. Long fresh and lasting."

"Deep stone fruit and wild herb aromas with a fascinating hint of smokiness from the lees. Impressive power plus excellent vitality and precision for the 2022 vintage. Stunning slatey minerality at the very long and complete finish. From 70-year-old vines, yet almost 50,000 bottles of this wine were produced! Vegan. Drink or hold."
