Wine Spectator
“A tasty version, with a zing of lemon and lime acidity coursing through honeyed apple, sun tea, warm hay and herb notes. Supple and drinking well right now. Drink now through 2028. 2,000 cases made, 336 cases imported.”
Maxime Grunhaus Maximin Riesling 2022
On the nose, this wine has aromas of fresh lemon and yellow plum, with minerality with excellent freshness. The sweetness and crisp acidity are well balanced, resulting in a Riesling with a refreshing, off-dry finish.
The Maximin Grünhaus estate lies at the foot of a long steep south-facing slope on the left bank of the Ruwer River, about two kilometres before it joins the Mosel. The estate is divided into three separate but contiguous vineyards, with distinct micro-climates, gradients and soil compositions.
Work in the Maximin Grünhaus vineyards is conducted in close harmony with nature. Fertilization is predominantly organic, and the vineyards have been planted with a cover crop of wild herbs and grasses. The main grape variety at Grünhaus is Riesling, which makes up 94% of the total. Stefan Kraml took charge of viticulture and viniculture at Grünhaus in 2004 and since then the wines of the estate have benefited from his uncompromisingly high standards.
