91 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2006 Schlossbockelheimer Felsenberg Riesling Spatlese delivers luscious, juicy ripe poached peach and red raspberries dusted with brown spices and pepper. Intense and faintly sweet-tart in character at this youthful stage, it lacks the clarity or levity of the Kirschheck, but certainly not the sheer length, which is saltier, smokier, sappier, spicier, and altogether more insistent. Not that this needs to try too hard to convince me either to take the next sip, or to revisit another bottle in a few years. It should have a good 15 years in it. From a quartzitic site along the Nahe at the edge of the city (and which might have been built-on had the municipal water supply not been located there, the reason also why it must be farmed organically)." (10/08) According to importer Terry Theise: "A serious, diligent wine with something to tell you. Pungent terroir gets your attention, and the ripe salty mid-palate keeps it; it’s more enveloping and chromatic than Kirschheck. Here the truth lies in the whole and not in the particular configuration of the pieces. But clearly important, this dispatch from the earth. How is it to speak if not here? Wines like these are like music made into water."
