Herrenberg Riesling GG - Weingut Maximin Grünhaus

In the glass, the Herrenberg Riesling GG from Weingut Maximin Grünhaus reveals a bright light yellow color. Swirling the glass, one perceives an excellent balance in this white wine, as it does not appear watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like on the glass walls. This varietal German wine presents wonderfully expressive notes of ripe apple, grapefruit, pear and quince in the glass. There are also hints of lime and woodruff. Weingut Maximin Grünhaus Herrenberg Riesling GG delights with its straightforward dry flavor profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus, despite all its dryness, this German wine captivates with the finest balance. Excellent flavor does not necessarily require a lot of residual sugar. On the finish, this youthful white wine from the Mosel region impresses with lovely length. Once again, hints of ripe apple and grapefruit appear. On the aftertaste, mineral notes from the slate-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of Weingut Maximin Grünhaus Herrenberg Riesling GG

The basis for the balanced Herrenberg Riesling GG from the Mosel is grapes of the Riesling variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions on the Mosel. The vines sink their roots deep into slate soils here. After the grape harvest, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in large wooden and stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the elegant Herrenberg Riesling GG is aged for several more months in 1,000-liter oak Fuder casks.
