Suckling 93:
Very attractive aromas of limes, fresh wild herbs and slate. All nicely played, very fresh and fragrant. The palate has a very smooth delivery of fine, sweet limes and honey and white peaches to close. Neatly balanced. Drink or hold.
Wine Advocate 92+:
From predominantly raisined rather than botrytized grapes, the 2018 Maximin Grünhaus Herrenberg Riesling Kabinett is lush, salty-piquant, quite generous and sweet yet also pure and enormously fresh and salty. Bottled with 8.8 grams per liter of acidity and concentrated fruit, this is terribly young but very promising.
Also a Wine Spectator 93:
Very hoppy on the nose, with jasmine and saffron notes extending on the palate, followed by a richly spiced core of peach and persimmon flavors. Hints of cream and tangerine zest emerge, revealing a bit of grip toward the finish. Complex, invigorating, elegant and beautifully balanced, this is a terrific expression of the category. Drink now through 2033.
