Decanter: 96 Points
“This superb Riesling has an almost piercing concentration and depth of flavour, with aromas of lime, passion fruit, fresh white flowers and an undercurrent of savoury minerality. Despite the sunny conditions of the vintage, this is a tightly wound wine with plenty of extract and breadth balanced by fresh acidity that draws the wine to an impressively long finish. The grapes come from a 5.7-hectare site at nearly 300 metres elevation where the shale soils provide tiny yields of highly concentrated grapes.”
Vinous Media: 94 Points
“The 2022 Dry Riesling Wagner Caywood East comes from a higher-elevation site that just packs this wine full of concentrated fruit. Pear, golden apple, slate and crystal-clear delineated mineral accents of sea salt, crushed rocks and chalk are all hemmed in by perfectly calibrated acidity. The finish is long and absolutely precise. This is a wine of polish.”
