Weingut Maximin Grünhäuser
Abtsberg Kabinett Riesling
Mosel, Germany
A pretty pale straw color with little green tinges. Pure elegance from the beginning to the end. Fresh mangoes and delicate peaches on the nose. There’s an undeniable flinty essence here which permeates throughout, never losing steam. Moist stony minerality and dried herbs with just a pinch of elderflower.
It’s so nice when a wine showcases the terroir so clearly and demonstrably. Purely Mosel and very vibrant. Perfectly mature at the moment. Tight acidity and harmonious balance. The palate features some lovely apricot and lemon zest. A little mint on the long finish.

Does posting the same wine twice in the same week make you a fan or an alcoholic?

Dec 8th, 2020Sweeter than I prefer although had nice acidity, fruitiness and a hint of blue cheese. It went well with salmon and beets for dinner. Glad I bought two bottles.
