2020 KASTANIENBUSCH Riesling GG
"At once exotic, yet cool and delicately herbal, very concentrated but no less light-footed, this shows crystalline purity that’s a wonder to behold! Moves on tiptoe through the super-long, filigree finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 IM SONNENSCHEIN Weisser Burgunder GG
"A real Grand Cru pinot blanc that has everything you expect from a Grand Cru white Burgundy, in terms of subtle, buttery richness, chalky concentration and stunning balance through the awesome, wide-screen finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 IM SONNENSCHEIN Weißer Burgunder GG
"So much energy and expression, but this remains really sleek and focused. Minty freshness. Power married to the minimum of weight necessary to support it. Then, at once silky and energetic at the very long, precise finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 MANDELBERG Weisser Burdunder GG
"A full and deep dry pinot blanc that hides its power behind lovely pomelo and crisp pear fruit. Then the power shows its hand at the bold yet fresh finish. Only just beginning to reveal the treasures that are buried here! From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 Frankweiler Biengarten RIESLING trocken VDP.Erste Lage
"Welcome to the flower garden! However, this is a super-youthful wine that’s just beginning to open up on the palate, where there’s gigantic freshness and vitality. Plenty of acidity, but the very long, citrusy finish is already silky. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 "GANZ HORN" Riesling GG
"Wild and slightly funky in the nose, this stunning dry riesling is a real live wire, with grainy minerality that’s totally distinctive. Lots of bergamot and Mediterranean herbs. Totally fresh finish, in spite of moderate acidity. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 SCHÄWER Riesling GG
"At once ripe and rather powerful, yet with a playful side that makes this seriously mineral wine a lot of fun. The very focused, dry finish is nicely supported by the fine tannins. So much wet-stone character! From the only corner of the Pfalz with slate soils. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 RIESLING vom Rotliegenden trocken VDP.Ortswein
"Super-mineral with the most delicate, exotic-fruit character. As tight and intense as a laser beam. Enormous brilliance and precision. A lot of GGs don’t reach this level! Stunning crushed-stone finish that’s fresh enough to wake the dead. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 RIESLING vom Buntsandstein trocken VDP.Ortswein
"Very fine and elegant for a village wine, this is so classic Pfalz, the combination of generosity and sophisticated crispness simultaneously delightful and serious. The aromas are decisively on the green side, but without a hint of unripeness. Long, super-clean finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 RIESLING vom Muschelkalk trocken VDP.Ortswein
"A wealth of citrus and plenty of wild herbs, too. Ripe and rather full, but still on the cool side, this has a very harmonious balance of body and elegant acidity. Just beginning to show what it’s made of at long, chalky finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 Siebeldinger WEISSER BURGUNDER vom Muschelkalk trocken VDP.Ortswein
"You could easily mistake this for an excellent Chablis, because of the intense chalky character and the clarity. Only at the finish do you feel acidity that is a bit too bright for Chablis. But that’s exactly what gives this wine special charm. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 RIESLING <Ökonomierat> trocken VDP.Gutswein
"Brimming with lime, grapefruit and star fruit. Excellent depth, yet still so lively on the medium-bodied palate. I love the elegance and the enormously refreshing aspects of this very impressive "basic" wine. Uplifting fresh-herb character at the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

2020 RIESLING vom Schiefer trocken VDP.Ortswein
"So delicate and filigree with fairy-tale playfulness. Plenty of acidity, but it’s beautifully integrated within the sleek frame of this striking exception to the Pfalz rule. Mountain-stream purity at the long, lime finish! From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold."

2020 WEISSER BURGUNDER trocken VDP.Gutswein
"Fresh pear aromas pour from the glass of this excellent dry pinot blanc that’s so vibrant and precise. Amazing for the "humble" estate-wine category. Long, succulent and pristine finish! From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

2020 RIESLING trocken VDP.Gutswein
"Extremely fresh with a hint of youthful funk (reduction), but that blows off quickly to reveal crisp pear and lime-zest aromas. Very clean, straight and bright with so much citrus and herbal character at the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."
