Maximin Grunhaus Herrenberg Riesling Spatlese
The Herrenberg Spatlese is always the flashiest wine at Grunhaus as the vineyards red slate soils render a more lush, slightly lower acid riesling that its bigger brother Abstberg. Spatlese sweet with explosive aromas and flavors of red delicious apples, yellow peaches, strawberry/rhubarb and salty minerals. Full bodied for a riesling, serve with a Virginia baked ham, a spicy lamb curry or just a traditional Jaeger schnitzel.
