"An impressive Riesling from a little-known terroir (Wine Advocate)"
“There is great depth and precision in this bouquet. It reveals inviting and subtle notes of pastries, flint, and yellow fruits. The wine is precise, delicate, and elegant. The briny attack gives way to a Riesling that is full-bodied yet incisive, prominent, and sharp. This creates a balance between roundness and liveliness, between tension and fruit, while a subtle austerity reinforces the expression and persistence of the finish. A truly great wine with incredible energy on the finish. It is ready to stand the test of time and delight many palates for decades to come!” (Yves Beck 2024)

Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Wine rated (2025 guide) 94+/100 (Outstanding wine)
About the wine:
The 2020 Clos Rebberg is deep, pure, and intense on the nose, with a well-concentrated and slightly herbaceous profile that reveals ripe, dense, and elegant fruit with deep mineral nuances derived from the blue slate soils. On the palate, it is an elegant, refined, and intense Riesling—dense and round, well-concentrated and full-bodied—with fine tannins, delicate bitter notes, and a certain richness balanced by its substantial mineral structure. It is more generous than the 2021 and, although still young, is almost ready to be served. Very long and aromatic, it is an impressive Riesling from a little-known terroir.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 95/100
Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)
About the wine:
The Clos Rebberg displays admirable fruit brilliance; it is a wine that is still somewhat reserved but stunning in its purity and intensity, with a vibrant finish and exceptional length.
About the estate:
Antoine, the son of Marc Kreydenweiss, has been at the helm of this estate in Andlau since 2007; the estate is among the pioneers of biodynamics in Alsace. The diversity of the estate’s terroirs and their subtle interpretation have always been a strength here, further enhanced by the changes Antoine has implemented (slower pressing and extended aging on lees). The risks taken in vinifying many cuvées without sulfur (or with minimal levels) are paying off and do not result in the slightest flaw. A small line of wines made from purchased organic grapes has been launched under the label Lune à Boire. The Pinot Noir and macerated wines (not rated) are of the highest caliber. The standards have returned to the highest level with wines of rare vitality, and continue to deepen, with ambitious aging periods of four years for the 2017 Grand Cru Rieslings. These exciting wines, with their rare vitality, have earned the estate its third star this year.

About the wine:
This Riesling was aged for two years in large oak casks. The bouquet offers great depth and precision. It reveals inviting and subtle notes of pastries, flint, and yellow fruits. The wine is precise, delicate, and elegant. The briny attack gives way to a Riesling that is full-bodied yet incisive, pronounced, and sharp. This creates a balance between roundness and liveliness, between tension and fruit, while a subtle austerity reinforces the expression and persistence of the finish. A truly great wine with incredible energy on the finish. It is ready to stand the test of time and delight many palates for decades to come! 2026–2050
