Super-elegant and vibrant, this is delicious now, but has enormous aging potential. There\'s an explosion of herbs and berries. This is the point where the critic starts struggling to describe the wine adequately. More aging potential than I have!

The 2015 Maximin Grünhäuser Herrenberg Riesling Auslese offers an open and very aromatic bouquet of herbal aromas and ripe Riesling flavors but is less focused, precise and stony on the nose than the Abtsberg. Fresh and piquant on the palate, this is a very juicy and slightly astringent Auslese that currently lacks finesse and comes along a bit drying. The aging potential should be very good, though.

A little bit of botrytis. They picked out all the negative botrytis. Very intense and pure. Doesn’t seem obviously inferior to Abtsberg. Pure and very fresh. (JR)
