Robert Parker
"A Riesling made to keep!
"The Riesling Bernkasteler Badstube Auslese * (Capsule Verte) 2021 is still restrained but concentrated and fine with a densely mineral nose that reveals notes of crushed blue slate, slate oil and dense Riesling aromas. Round, dense and tasty on the palate, this is a gourmet Auslese, very fine and elegant, with a beautiful phenolic grip on the finish." (Wine Advocate 2023)
