2020 Maximin Grunhaus ’Schloss’ Riesling

JS93 Spring has sprung in this glass! So effusive and yet so delicate, this is a dry Riesling fairy tale that came true. Love the juicy fruit on the mid-palate as much as the long, very elegant finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
Estate Notes: A precise and delicately defined dry-style Riesling, harvested from this estate’s wholly-owned hillside of contiguous vineyards.
This new label replaces the former “Monopol” Riesling and is produced with fruit harvested from the estate’s wholly owned Abtsberg, Herrenberg and Bruderberg vineyards. As with the Monopol, the wine perfectly captures the exotic fruit and delicate precision that are classic characteristics of the Grünhaus estate. It is made in the German trocken (dry ) style, which balances a small amount of residual sweetness (less than nine grams per liter) with vibrant acidity. This carries the official VDP classification of “Gutswein” (estate wine).
