Maximin Grünhäuser Abtsberg Kabinett Trocken Riesling 1995

BR was only off by a decade in this blind, which is both a testament to her blind-tasting acumen and the producer's greatness. She thought it was an 05' which given how young this was looking, was a forgivable mistake. The producer was an easy one - that unmistakable green tea aroma with streaks of white flowers, kaffir lime, and anise was just so Grunhaus. How she figured out it was from Abtsberg still baffles me, but I guess it was really just a 50/50 shot once the producer was established. Finally the lightness and dry linear finish placed it right in the Kabinett Trocken territory. Bravo, BR! As for me, the wine was just too digestible to have warranted any thought when drinking - disappeared over lunch with a good half of the effort contributed by yours truly. — 3 years ago

Very expressive. Loaded with flavors of peach and apricot. Slightly off dry but beautifully balanced with the acidity. Well done. — 4 years ago

Maximin Grünhauser Abtsberg Spätlese Riesling 1986

The condition of the bottle was remarkable - the wine was fresh and crisp, like the day it was bottled. Bright with a tinge of green, no signs of TDN at all. Only the mellowed acidity gave any indication of age. Insane!

Despite all that, the wine itself was rather disappointing. Not really complex or deep, and finish was quite short. I guess it did come from a tough vintage. However, it had the classic Grunhaus lightness - drinking more like a kabi than spat. In conclusion, an easy fun drink that fell below expectations.

Maximin Grünhauser Abtsberg Superior Riesling 2017

Nice wine. A bit more powerful of a style. Bottled just a few weeks ago - quite fresh. Finish was a bit thin at first but with some air firmed up and the acid made itself know. Mouth filling with good fruit and acidity, and a bit of earth. — 7 years ago

Longuich Maximin Herrenberg 1896 Trocken Alte Reben Riesling 2018

Pings your nostrils with sequence of subtle vibrations at hummingbird frequency. Lime, orange blossom, burnt match. Then a slow slip into my absolute favorite honeyed dimension. I love when honey shows up - it's one of my favorite notes in wine. Here it changes the direction from steely stern face to a textured viscous warm smirk. — 3 years ago

9.1

A great value buy from GL at $13 bin end sale. Previous bottle was great. This one accidently frozen for 4 hrs couple weeks ago when forgotten in freezer for BYOW dinner, then thawed. Opened 9/9/18. Acidic and minerals on palate after impression of rocks and stone fruits and lemon on nose. Long acidic finish. Great with shrimp and should be for seafoods and others. Too bad likely last bottle. — 7 years ago
