Wine Advocate (88+)The 2015 Maximin Grünhäuser Herrenberg Riesling Auslese offers an open and very aromatic bouquet of herbal aromas and ripe Riesling flavors but is less focused, precise and stony on the nose than the Abtsberg. Fresh and piquant on the palate, this is a very juicy and slightly astringent Auslese that currently lacks finesse and comes along a bit drying. The aging potential should be very good, though. |

Mosel | 1 | 97 (WS) | $1,635.00 | |||||

Vinous (93)White currant and quince jellies are joined by an Esszencia-like note of dried apricot and ominous, Eiswein-typical smokiness, nasal prickle and high-toned suggestion of apricot distillate. Tingling brightness animates the viscous palate, which is a bit less rich than that of the corresponding Auslese, no doubt reflecting the latter’s component of botrytis versus this bottling’s healthy bunches. The penetrating, searing, high-acid finishing impression displayed by the Auslese reaches a take-no-prisoners extreme here, and there is even more of a metallic sheen to the finish. Expect some excitement if you follow this audacious concentrate, but you might want to wear sunglasses... and don’t expect harmony. |
