Every bottle drunk of Müller-Catoir is a love letter. There is a visceral experience with these wines, like a pumice stone, a rough surface to a smooth finish. These aren't razor edged wines, forcing a point of view, they are edgy with secrets to share with those who are willing to listen. This historic estate has had hundreds of years and plenty of talented winemakers have garnered it critical acclaim. But never have they rested on their laurels, even now, with some of the most careful farming and strictest selection of grapes from anywhere. Whether dry or sweet, Riesling or Pinot Noir, young or old the stark minerality of these wines will bring you back for more.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 92
"The 2019 Bürgergarten Riesling is clear and dusty/stony on the pure and puristic yet aromatic and distinctive nose that shows notes of crushed stones as well as ripe and elegant fruit. On the palate, this is a juicy, round, quite concentrated, almost mouth-filling yet also pure, tight, mineral and fine dry Riesling with a certain phenolic grip and a clear, salty finish. Still terribly young." -Robert Parker

What importer Skurnik Wines has to say about this wine...

This was my favorite among a range of tasty single-vineyard wines; the site always seems to give intensely bakey Rieslings from its sandy/loessy soil; it was the warmest and most intriguing of the 1er Lage trio; baking bread, crusts, spelt flour – a side of Riesling I love and which is hard to find – not led by fruit or even by mineral; it’s warm, inferential, savory, crackery; fields of flavor but uncanny. You hardly thought wine could taste like this.
