Von Schubert Maximin Grunhauser Herrenberg Riesling Kabinett 2015 |
A classic, elegant Ruwer Riesling with enormous aging potential. This wine displays an herbal nose, ripe fruit notes on the palate, and invigorating acidity.
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 HERRENBERG RIESLING KABINETT
The Herrenberg vineyard is based more on red slate, than its neighbor Abtsberg, and has deeper topsoil that retains more water, which can be of great benefit in dry years. The wines are more generous and tend to open up sooner than those of Abtsberg, but are capable of equal longevity. This wine is exhibits the delicate Kabinett style, but also the distinctive stone fruit flavors and red slate minerality that are typical of this vineyard’s terroir
