Jancis Robinson MW: “Delicate and lively with a flirtatious floral overlay. And great depth of flavour that suggests biodynamic viticulture. Well done! Some Alsace 2023 Rieslings are still quite tight but this well-structured and complex wine was beautifully approachable and rewarding. It also went extremely well with almost all of the (18?) dishes in our varied menu in this Chinese restaurant in Pimlico, London. Drink now-2033.” 17 points
