99 points Vinous"The 2019 Siepi continues a trend toward greater finesse and nuance in this wine. Crème de cassis, lavender, spice, licorice and plum meld together effortlessly in the glass. Dense and layered, with striking detail, the 2019 is so...

98 points James Suckling"A super elegant Auslese that balances exactly the creamy and racy aspects of nobly sweet riesling, in a way that anybody who doesn't hate sweetness (e.g. rejection of sugar in espresso) will have no problem enjoying! What...

98 points James Suckling"The deep, peach and apricot nose leads you into this enormously concentrated yet graceful dry riesling that’s got the stature to stand next to almost any Grand Cru white Burgundy. Enormously long, beautifully balanced...

97 points Decanter"This wine transposes the sparse calcareous soil and Hanspeter Ziereisen's subtle winemaking, which uses about 50% whole bunch fermentation in closed tanks to protect the fruit and later maturation in barrique, 20% new. A rather unique...

96 points Wine Enthusiast"Fresh tangerine and Mandarin notes dance on the nose and continue right onto the palate. Here, they are joined by a bright, vivid streak of lemon freshness that makes the senses tingle and the mouth water. This is streamlined...

97 points Wine Enthusiast"A fragrant note of peony and a touch of violet are the first impressions on the nose. With more air, a sense of creamy vanilla emerges. The palate, illuminated by pervasive freshness, is dense in flavors of red cherry and forest...

98 points Jeb Dunnuck"The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Boisrenard is a Grenache-dominated field blend (80%) that also includes 15 other varieties. Brought up all in foudre, it boasts a dense purple hue to go with a sensational, full-bodied,...

100 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate"Every bit as profound as the 2010, yet in a more voluptuous, lower acid, hedonistic style, the inky colored 2009 Hermitage les Bessards (aged all in new French oak) offers incredible intensity and depth in its...

99 points Wine Enthusiast"Aromas of rose, violet, red berry and baking spice mingle with a whiff of menthol on the nose of this compelling, gorgeous red. The vibrant, full-bodied palate is all about flair and finesse, delivering crushed raspberry,...

95 points James Suckling"I can’t remember a Haut-Batailley this tannic, yet the tannins are savory and very ripe with beauty and purity. Full-bodied, chewy tannins and a long and intense finish." 94 points Jeb Dunnuck"The flagship 2018...

100 points Jeb Dunnuck"Lastly, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Reserve is another magical wine, and I might have rated this cuvée a perfect score more than any other Southern Rhône. Unquestionably in the same realm as the 2017, 2016,...

93 points James SucklingVery aromatic with cassis and stone character that follows through to a medium to full body, silky tannins and a fresh finish. Fine texture. Try in 2022. 92 points Wine Advocate"The 2014 Haut Batailley has a very subtle bouquet,...
