Vinification of the Abtsberg Riesling GG 1.5L Magnum by Maximin Grünhaus

The wine originates from the renowned Abtsberg vineyard, whose location on loess and slate soils with lean mineral content significantly contributes to its complex structure. The vines grow in an optimal microclimate characterized by cool nights and sunny days. Hand harvesting is performed very selectively to process only grapes at perfect ripeness. This guarantees the unparalleled freshness and depth of the wine.

In the cellar, the grapes are gently pressed to preserve delicate aromas and the typical minerals of the terroir. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, maintaining freshness and fruit accents. Subsequently, the wine matures on fine lees for several months. This aging process imparts a creamy texture and subtle complexity, giving the Abtsberg Riesling GG its characteristic depth.
