What a deep and dramatic wine this is! But there’s also a lot of charm, the mini banana and fresh pineapple aromas pouring from the glass. A lot of power on the expansive palate, but also great tension and an underlying, savory note that makes the long finish compelling. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. - James Suckling
A hint of crushed citrus foliage sends aromatic signals from the shy nose on this wine. A tiny carbon-dioxide spritz on the palate lets lemon freshness take center stage before a more rounded, candied-lemon ripeness takes over. There is something serene and effortless in this vivid mouthful of Amalfi lemon fullness. It's dry, bright and utterly refreshing. Drink 2020–2040. -Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast
The 2018 Riesling Cuvée Colette offers a clear, bright, fresh and flinty bouquet that is precise and elegant and an excellent ambassador of the sandy granite soils at the bottom of the grand cru Schlossberg. Fresh, round and with lush fruit on the palate, this is an elegant and well-concentrated dry Riesling with fine tannins and lingering saline acidity that make this a quite rich but lean and appetizing Riesling with excellent phenolic grip on the crisp and cleansing finish. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2023. - Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate
