Full straw yellow. On the nose, the ripe peach and nectarine notes of the 2015 vintage meet the typical cool cassis aroma of the Maximin Grünhäuser Abtsberg. Complex mineral scent with subtle ethereal component. On the tongue, juicy Riesling fruit. Fine, elegant and excellently integrated acidity. Seems a bit playful despite high concentration. Not quite dry. Excellent length.

Golden yellow in colour. Intense, spontaneously spicy aroma of peach and cassis. Concentrated and compact Riesling, typical of the 2015 vintage, with juice, firm structure and fine, integrated acidity. Very good balance and length.

Pale yellow with citrus core. Abtsberg-typical, complex scent of cassis and grapefruit. On the tongue it is juicy, multi-layered and full-bodied, with vibrant, ripe and distinctive acidity. Clear cassis aromas again. Great finesse and elegance. Outstanding length and depth.

Full lemon yellow colour. Typical Ruwer Riesling with a green-herbaceous peach nose and fine spiciness. Finely tart flavour with a juicy fruit centre, accentuating, vibrant acidity and a delicate hint of sweetness. Animating and with outstanding length.

Golden yellow in colour. Typical “Grünhaus-Goût” on the nose with aromas of grapefruit and hints of cassis. Almost dry-tasting Riesling with vital, ripe and well-integrated acidity, hardly any noticeable sweetness and enormous juiciness. Outstanding length.

Reflective green gold. Complex bouquet with very fine notes of ripe fruit and hints of cassis. On the tongue, the fruit then unfolds, the cassis aroma now clearly emerging. Carried by delicate sweetness and perfectly integrated, ripe and harmonious acidity, the “Superior” seems almost a little creamy on the tongue at times. But then an acid accent heralds the long finish. Somewhat phenolic in the finish. Great length.

Golden yellow with bright reflections. Aroma of white peach with hints of green apple and cinnamon star. An attack characterised by sweetness. This is followed by the green herbaceous flavours typical of the Ruwer. Good tension thanks to vital acidity. Great depth. Only a little sweetness noticeable on the finish. Outstanding length. Lingers for a long time.

Bright golden yellow. Mature Riesling bouquet with delicate tertiary aromas and green herbs typical of the Ruwer region. Lively fruit on the palate. Here, ripe peach and nectarine are much more pronounced than on the nose. Spicy, well-integrated acidity that engages in a thrilling duel with the sweetness. Vibrant tension. Excellent length, great persistence.

Pale golden yellow with amber reflections. Ripe Riesling bouquet with herbal, spicy aromas and subtle fruit. Less sweet on the palate than expected. Delicately fruity, with good acidity, probably quite piquant when young, but now excellently integrated. Clear spicy notes again. Some bitter orange on the palate. Excellent length and persistence.

Symbols
🯅The rating of the wine is based on a single taster. The taster is named in the context of the rating. The tasting was either open or blind. In case of a blind tasting, it is explicitly labelled as such.
🯅🯅The rating of the wine is based on two tasters. The tasters are named in the context of the rating. The tasting was carried out according to the four-eyes principle, in which both tasters agree on a joint rating.
🯅🯅🯅The rating is based on a tasting by our jury and indicates the Mean value calculated by us from the individual ratings of the tasters. Our mean value is based on the median.
⚖The wine was evaluated in a blind tasting. We have strict rules for blind tastings. The tasters do not receive any information that would allow them to identify the wines. The tasters are only given access to further information that goes beyond the subject matter if it is absolutely necessary for understanding the wines.
🕓We only had limited time to taste the wine  - typically during an open tasting event, such as a wine fair. It was therefore not possible to observe the development of the wine in the glass over a longer period of time. The informative value of our rating may therefore be limited under certain circumstances.
⛬The wine was tasted as a barrel sample or before an official test number (Amtliche Prüfungsnummer or Staatliche Prüfnummer) was issued. We only accept samples of unfilled wines in exceptional cases, and then only if we can assume sufficient stability in the bottle for a period of at least three months.
▲During our tasting, the wine showed conspicuous sensory characteristics. This does not necessarily have to be a wine fault. We categorise the quality and quantity of the abnormality and include it in the rating. Wine faults such as cork taint or an atypical ageing generally lead to a complete rejection.
Tastings that refer to the same bottle of a wine are visually summarised by a dotted line.
