2021: James Suckling: 96/100 "The amazing nose of exotic fruits of this Auslese, the King Alphonso mango reigning supreme, but there’s also plenty of Thai basil. Stunning concentration and vibrancy on the medium-bodied and very focused palate. Excellent aging potential, but who can resist this beauty now? Pristine finish."

2020: James Suckling: 95/100 "A touch of mushroom from botrytis on the nose, but way more exotic fruit, particularly papaya. Eucalyptus, too. Great power and textural complexity on the full-bodied palate, the sweetness very discreet for this category. Wonderful lime-zest freshness at the finish. Drink or hold."

2018: James Suckling: 94/100 Points "Weighted branches of tropical-fruit trees have been generous here, offering ripe mangoes, apricots, jack fruit, lychees, papaya and baked bananas. Sweet and very bold with a huge amount of depth and viscosity. The tropical fruit turns to caramel and sticky toffee pudding on the finish. Drink now or hold." | Robert Parker: 91/100 Points "The 2018 Rieslaner Herzog Auslese offers an intense, clear, ripe and concentrated bouquet. Sweet and lush but also piquant on the palate, this is a well-structured, lush and juicy wine with pineapple aromas and stimulating vitality. The wine has grip and tension that counterbalances the enormous sweetness from the 150 grams of residual sugar." | RESTAURANT WINE® Issues #190-193: 4/5 stars "A ripe, aromatic Rieslaner of fine quality. It has floral, fruity, spicy character (rose petal, white pepper, lime, honey, peach, sage), medium body, and a medium long finish. Still young; will develop with further aging. Organic. [2024-2030]"

First rate; needs aging." | EDEL Cup 2022 Germany: 95/100 points | Wine accompaniment at the Supperclub 2023 for "White Chocolate | Passion Fruit | Pineapple"

2018: James Suckling: 95/100 Points "Such richness and ripeness with very clean fruit here; this has a wealth of mango and super ripe-peach aromas, as well as a chalky edge. The palate has very rich apricots, dried peaches and mangoes in such clean style. Very, very rich, sweet and clean. From organically grown grapes. Drink over the next decade or more." | Robert Parker: 92/100 Points "Picked at 160° Oechsle and including 50% botrytis berries, the 2018 Herzog Rieslaner Beerenauslese is pure, fine and flinty on the spicy, peppery pineapple nose. Salty, piquant and grippy on the palate, this is an excellent Rieslaner that benefits from the early concentration of the grapes, which gives piquancy and tension and a long and concentrated finish." | RESTAURANT WINE® Issues #190-193: 4+/5 stars "Terrific! The BA is very fine: supple, richly flavored (baked pear, peach, pineapple, honey, honeysuckle, rose petal), well balanced, and very long on the finish. Warrants at least 5 more years of aging. Organic. [2026-2040]"
