Very well received, the Tokay Pinot gris Grand Cru Steinert 2000, fine and virile at the same time (…) The Gewurztraminer Grand Cru Steinert 2000 is strong and bloomy (…) The neat Crémant d’Alsace Brut millésimé 2003, fine and with persistant foam.

Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2003 (éditions Gilbert&Gaillard)

Grand Cru Steinert 1997 (Riesling)
Brilliant light yellow colour (...), elegant with notes of white fruits, citrus fruits (...). An intensive full-bodied Riesling, (...), of excellent freshness, (...), pleasantly mineral.

Mes vins plaisirs à moins de 10€ (Jean-Pierre Coffe) (éditions PLON)

He can be proud of his soil (...) in the villages Pfaffenheim and Westhalten south of Colmar (...). This land gives the Riesling in particular a surpassing, subtle grace, which Pierre-Paul Zink brings out with great mastery.

De ELZAS wijnroute (Etienne Van Steenberghe) (éditions GLOBE)

"Nog best betaalbaar. Gezellig proeflokaal. Sympathieke ontvangst. Een absolute aanrader"

Serge Dubs (World’s best Sommelier 1989), “Les Grands Crus d’Alsace”(éditions Serpenoise)

An excellent wine (...) A storage wine, certainly a bit nervous and impulsive when young, but which attains a rich body and fullness by virtue of the personality of the terrain.
