5 Stars: “At the risk of repeating ourselves: it is fascinating to see the ease with which Theresa Breuer’s team delivers one magnificent collection after another. Even among the best wineries, this is by no means a matter of course; it requires meticulous work, craftsmanship and a great deal of passion. Stylistically, Theresa Breuer is in a league of her own, her Rieslings displaying an elegant and effortlessly staged minerality and tension. Berg Schlossberg is one of the greatest Rieslings of the vintage, simply breathtaking.”

4,5 Stars: “Crisp, clear and invigorating! This can be said for all the wines in this exceptionally successful collection. The acidity has been boldly embraced here. It is pronounced, but in no way aggressive. […] With apple and citrus notes, the juicy base wines Sauvage and Charm are already impressive. Even with the local wines, Theresa Breuer’s team brings out the characteristics of the different terroirs. […] The excellent single vineyard wines are extremely promising. The mineral-rich, juicy and clear Berg Schlossberg is certainly at the top, but the spicy and delicate Nonnenberg and the already accessible Rottland are not far behind. The wines from the Berg Roseneck are always presented after bottle ageing, and this late release does not necessarily follow a chronological order. This year, it was the turn of the spicy, mellow and wonderfully flowing 2019. A great wine!”

5 Stars: “[…] The single-vineyard wines have long been a cult. But it would be a mistake to reduce the winery only to these sometimes high-priced top wines. Theresa Breuer’s base wines also offer impressive Riesling character, show the winery’s signature and reflect their origins perfectly. […] The Terra Montosa has a bouquet of white fruit and lemon zest, in the mouth it is wonderfully crisp and precise, yet always animating and elegant. […] The Berg Schlossberg Riesling is very concentrated, insisting and immensely full-bodied, in 2023 it is a broad-shouldered, muscular wine compared to previous years. […] The Riesling from Lorcher Pfaffenwies is also very strong again this year, initially showing very ripe fruit, lemon peel and apple, building up pressure with air. How much Breuer wines are vinified for longevity is illustrated by the 2020 Berg Roseneck, which shows aromas of white tea, lemon peel, honeysuckle and chamomile, weaving them into a fine tannin structure. Great collection!”

5 Stars: “The Rüdesheim winery is one of the Rheingau classics, and even more: it is a legend. Where lies the greatness of this achievement? In its qualitative reliability? In its stylistically clear focus? In the pleasantly grounded, unpretentious, likeable manner that radiates from the chef to the entire business? It’s probably a combination of everything. Theresa Breuer and her team manage to give their wines the appearance of great naturalness. There must be a lot of winemaking diligence in them, but they seem to be casually thrown together.

A winery that is associated with tranquillity and identity. The path for this has definitely been paved. Here in Rüdesheim, the focus is on the moment, always with the aim of giving each individual vineyard its own stage. On the 40 hectares, the top dry Rieslings are of course the stars, which in all its facets is also in the hands of cellar master Joel Welander.

[…] The single-vineyard wines are once again very full-bodied, fascinatingly persistent and unique in a positive sense. These include the Terra Montosa […] Its bouquet is characterised by yellow fruit, lemon peel and quinces, while the palate is very taut, subtly smoky, dense, concentrated and very grippy. […] The Pfaffenwies Riesling, which Theresa Breuer only added to the single-vineyard portfolio with the 2020 vintage, is more persistent and powerful than ever. […] A very strong collection!”

For us, the quality achieved by the Schlossberg, especially in this vintage, is admirable. Nonnenberg and Pfaffenwies are currently perhaps just ahead […] And we particularly liked the [Pfaffenwies] this year with its juicy, animating style […] Last year we were able to taste a meltingly ripe 2018 [Berg Roseneck], which is now followed by a juicy 2017 characterised by smoky ripeness and notes of green nuts.”

5 Stars: „What you can expect from the Breuer winery has been clear for years: Theresa Breuer, Hermann Schmoranz and Markus Lundén have a refined sense of style (and skill) that stands for deceleration and the value of nuance: their wines do without flavour enhancers and without loudspeakers and yet are so rich.

5 Stars: “[…] Rarely were we allowed to taste such challenging wines already in the base, which promise a lot of aging potential with their acid structure; like the entire collection, they combine power with finesse and lightness. […] The wine from the Lorch Pfaffenwies is lean, punchy and long, the Riesling from the Berg Rottland trumps with intense yellow fruits in the bouquet, then is sparse, precise and straightforward. The wine from the Rauenthaler Nonnenberg is smoky, concentrated, complex and persistent in the mouth. The Berg Schlossberg Riesling shows yellow fruit on the nose, then notes of Granny Smith and allspice in the mouth, is wonderfully precise and punchy. […] The two 2018 Rieslings underline once again that Theresa Breuer’s wines have immense ripening potential and secondly that they also shine in difficult years, especially the Berg Roseneck, which appears increasingly tart, precise and persistent with air – typical Breuer: A great wine and a great collection!

There is nothing contrived about it, everything seems to have become that way by itself. Certainly a Herculean effort is behind such sovereignty – everywhere in the team.

The mineral-clear, in the fragrance restrained Lorcher is perhaps the primus inter pares. […] The growths from the Berg Roseneck are always presented only with bottle maturity, and this late release is not necessarily chronological.

5 Stars: “After the takeover of the Lorch winery Altenkirch, the Falstaff editorial team has a new favourite in the Breuer range: the Riesling from the Lorch site Pfaffenwies declines the well-known detached style of the winery towards a piquancy and coolness that can probably only be achieved in Lorch. And the “Estate Series” of local Rieslings is no longer a duo, but a trio. And what a trio it is! Our tip is the Rüdesheim “Estate”, but Lorch and Rauenthal follow on its heels.

[…] Terra Montosa is, as always, a safe bet and, with its on the one hand sparse-edged, but on the other hand accessible juicy character, also very accessible when young – a genuine Breuer signature wine to drink now. […] The 2015 Riesling from the Berg Roseneck shows how excellently Theresa Breuer’s Rieslings can mature. The aromatic impressions of yellow fruits, herbs or citrus, which are always somewhat diffuse in young, structurally accentuated top Rieslings, have fanned out over the years. Now, crystal-clear aromas of sorrel, lemon balm, lemon juice and very subtle bergamot emerge. Despite its five years of bottle maturity, the wine is youthful, lacy and filigree with a punchy style that slowly begins to reveal a creamy texture. […]”

4,5F: “[…] This year’s collection is again consistently impressive. The winemaker stands for terroir Rieslings and does so with a consistency that makes them the best in their region. Already the basis is a safe bank. The local wines from Lorch, Rauenthal and Rüdesheim impressively show the fine terroir differences.

[…] The new cru from Pfaffenwies shows itself yellow-fruity, with a juicy tartness and a grainy finish. But the classics are still clearly ahead for us at the moment. For example the juicy, mineral Berg Rottland or the Nonnenberg that unifies spicy apple, juicy tartness, depth and length: a wine that rests in itself and that reveals all its strengths when you give it some air.

Fascinating as usual the two-tone of Schlossberg and Nonnenberg form the top of their selection: While the 2018 Schlossberg still appears almost shy the Nonnenberg shows with coolish depth why the wines from Rauenthal used to be the most wanteds in former times.

[…] The Roseneck anyhow brings, in the context of its maturation, fascinating and unique flavours to the nose and is much less fruitier but dinstinctly zesty and mineral. At the palate however it convinces with straightly austere grounding and a challenging acidity along with firm minerals.

“Five wines, five strikes: Theresa Breuer, Falstaff Winemaker of the year 2016, is also showing with her current producing why she has been awarded. Her Rieslings are of chrystalline brilliance, uncompromisingly worked on their ability to ripen, highly condensed and thereby lightweight in alcohol. Puristic and yet sensual. Even a comparatively well-priced label as “Terra Montosa” delivers you classy drinking pleasure. And because we already started rhapsodizing: The Pinot Noir plays in the same league as the Rieslings do.”

„Georg Breuer – that is a name that carries weight far beyond the Rheingau. Above all, the single-vineyard wines from Berg Rotland and Schlossberg have been considered icons of the region for many years and enjoy absolute cult status. Following in the footsteps of her father, who sadly passed away much too early, Theresa Breuer now runs the winery – and does so with such passion that any fears that the class of the wines might diminish have vanished into thin air. Whether site wines or Rieslings like the „Sauvage“ or „Rauenthal Estate“ – the standards are set here. Respect!“
Falstaff WeinGuide 2016
„ … Theresa Breuer makes terrific Rieslings that are being sold all over the world. The young winemaker leads the renowned estate Georg Breuer from Rüdesheimer following the device: „Tradition is transfer of fire no preservation of the ashes.“ …“
Sehnsucht Deutschland, 01/2016
4 Grapes – The estate is recommended by Gault&Millau WeinGuide Deutschland 2015: “The current range sees the Breuers defending their position as one of the best in the Rheingau region. We are pleased to see that this familyowned estate in Rüdesheim, with its long tradition, has in recent years not only maintained its quality, but has recently – certainly in the case of the dry, site-specific Riesling wines – even further improved the quality. Bernhard Breuer’s youngest daughter Theresa now has sole responsibility for the estate, supported by the long-standing general manager Hermann Schmoranz as well as the young cellar master Markus Lundén. The estate has worked in accordance with organic principles since 2010. As in the past, most of the wines are produced to taste dry.” Ratings: 2013 Berg Schlossberg 93 points (Top 10), 2013 Nonnenberg 92 points, 2013 Berg Roseneck 93 points, 2013 Berg Rottland 91 points

2013 Georg Breuer Rüdesheimer Berg Schlossberg Riesling Trocken: “Theresa Breuer’s 9th vintage of the Rudesheimer Berg Schlossberg Riesling trocken since the early death of her father Bernhard appears straw yellow and offers an amazingly clear, fresh, deep and dusty-mineral aroma of lime chutney along with pure rocky flavors. The impressive precision and density on the nose leads to a pure, full-bodied, penetrating mineral though elegant and piquant wine that is as clear as a bell and shaped by a searing acidity and an extremely long and citric finish. Clearly a long-distance runner, I would not start drinking it before 2019 but I’d be happy to have enough to enjoy this wine for a decade then.”
Stephan Reinhardt for RobertParker.com, October 2014
No. 2 of Top-20-Sparkling Wines from Germany: „The crown jewel among sparkling wines comes from the Rheingau. Of course, first and foremost the Pinot from the magnum with the porcelain label is meant. Its minerality and length, its creaminess and silkiness are convincing, Theresa Breuer does a top job.”
Falstaff, 01/2014
“With their current collection, the Breuers maintain their leading position in the Rheingau region. We are delighted that this traditional family business in Rüdesheim has been able to maintain its high standards of quality in recent years and, most recently, even improve them – at least in terms of its dry Rieslings. …” Ratings: 2012 Nonnenberg 92 points (Top 10), 2012 Berg Rottland 93 points (Top 10), 2012 Berg Schlossberg 92 points, 2012 Berg Roseneck 92 points

„ … Theresa Breuer’s wines from the 2007 vintage onwards are at least as fine and elegant as those of her father. She is his worthy and extremely capable successor.” Hitlist: Best Take-over
Fine Special No 2 – New Generation, 11/2013
“Anyone lucky enough to meet Theresa Breuer wonders where this lively, slender woman with dark hair gets her strength, cheerfulness and passion from. Perhaps it has something to do with the vines that grow here on the steepest slopes of the Rheingau region, whose roots reach particularly deep into the soil. When her father Bernhard Breuer died unexpectedly in May 2004 at the age of 57, he had turned the Georg Breuer winery, founded in 1880, into one of the best in Germany. His daughter had to (and wanted to!) continue the race – without a warm-up phase or run-up. She studied international wine business and worked at the winery at the same time. With support, she led the winery back to the very top among the Rheingau, indeed among German estates, within ten years.”

“… The 1998 (Nonnenberg) has the advantage of coming from a magnum bottle. This has preserved a freshness that cannot be expected from a 0.75 litre bottle. The nose reveals ripe, rich aromas of apple and quince jelly, refined with nutmeg and cinnamon. Citrus zest and wet slate also emanate from the glass. The glass should be large – for plenty of air and a big sip! On the palate, it is a compact, powerful wine reminiscent of great Alsace wines. A mixture of juicy, mouth-filling fruit and cool spice and tension. …” … Read more on www.captaincork.com.
