- Description
The Superior bottling is from old vines in the best part of the Abtsberg. It is fermented with natural yeasts in large oak casks to produce a perfectly balanced, off-dry wine that captures the purity and complexity of the vineyard. The name “Superior” is a reference to the estate’s monastic history.
THE MAXIMIN GRÜNHAUS ESTATE
The estate dates back to the 10th century, when it was given to the Benedictine monastery of St. Maximin in Trier. In 1882, it was purchased by an ancestor of Carl von Schubert, who is the fifth generation of his family to own the Grünhaus estate.
THE RUWER VALLEY
The Ruwer Valley is a tiny tributary that joins the Mosel just a bit downstream of Trier. Although the wines are labeled simply as “Mosel,” the Ruwer has a very distinct style due to its generally cooler conditions and well-drained slate soils.
MAXIMIN GRÜNHÄUSER ABTSBERG RIESLING “SUPERIOR”
The nearly dry Superior bottling is from old vines in the best part of the Abtsberg vineyard. It is a harmonious, perfectly balanced, off-dry wine that captures the purity and complexity of the vineyard. The name “Superior” is a reference to the estate’s monastic history, as in “Father Superior.”
