Parker review
From 50+-years-old vines in the clos Rangen. The nose is very pure yet very intense as well, offering the classic flintiness and iodine notes combined with fully ripe, bright, elegant and intense, spicy-scented fruit. Full-bodied, round and rich on the palate, this is a generous, powerful and textured yet always elegant and saline Riesling yet the richness of old vines and their mineral, expression as well. This is a superb Rangen Riesling that Alexandre describes as "one of the best we ever did." The finish is in fact very long, intense and seriously structured and provided with persistent salinity. 96/100.

Galloni's Vinous.com: 97/100 The 2022 Riesling Rangen Clos Saint Théobald Grand Cru is from a parcel in the midslope of the Rangen, picked from vines between 40 and 45 years old. The nose has immense clarity of the brightest citrus. The palate is totally taut, still raw almost, but displaying clarity, precision and wonderful concentration that tingles with all manner of citrus zest, spanning lemon, bergamot and aromatic tangerine. Exquisite density shows beautiful ripeness and serene smoothness, despite all the stone, wonderfully complete, without a touch of heat despite what Schoffit calls, rightly, a "violent, warm" vulcanic terroir. The 2022 is a pure wine of stone and tingling, aromatic citrus zest. (Bone-Dry)
