Maximin Grünhauser Bruderberg, Riesling, Kabinett, 2017

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

The coolest, smallest vineyard on the estate, Bruderberg offers up a noticeably herbal profile recalling Grünhaus vintages of old. Crunchy and wild on the palate, sappy with a fresh, relatively dry-tasting finish. Just one fuder barrel of 1300 bottles was produced.

critic reviews

87/100David Schildknecht,Vinous

I have seen this bottling very favorably reviewed by excellent tasters, but when I encountered it last in late August 2018, I found too much of an overlay of yeastiness and SO2 to be more than cautious in praising its virtues, which include a glossy, buoyant midpalate and generously juicy apple, lime and honeydew melon fruit. I don’t doubt it will exhibit stamina in bottle, but how much charm or complexity is hard to say. In my long experience with the often ingratiating wines from this tiny hill adjacent to but distinct from the Abtsberg-Herrenberg slope, they seldom if ever approach the complex fruit-mineral interaction of which Abtsberg and Herrenberg Rieslings are capable.
