They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks…but whoever coined that adage clearly never met the wizards at Maximin Grunhaus.

The viticultural history at this famed Ruwer estate is old — we mean really, really, really old. By the time of Emperor Otto (successor of Charlemagne), their status as a winery had been documented. But even the von Schubert family was astounded when archaeologists discovered their building foundations were originally laid as part of a Roman road. This, coupled with Roman pruning shears and amphorae dug up in the vineyards, brings their wine history back another 500 years!!

Down in their ancient cellar, wines ferment spontaneously with only ambient yeast — a rarity in Germany these days. These native yeast strains are key: Maximin von Schubert attributes the wines’ singular flavor profile and incredible quality at least in part to the flavors they help develop.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"The 2022 Riesling Maximin Grünhäuser Herrenberg Kabinett still shows yeasty reduction, but a passion fruit notion escapes, as does lemony verve. The palate sprays with lemon freshness, and the sweetness boosts the lemon vividly. This fills the mouth and mind with its sharp, citric intensity, making the mouth water with lemon zestiness and racy fun. Vivid, juicy, light and bright with a medium finish. (Medium)" -Anne Krebiehl

Decanter

D 95
"The 2022 Herrenberg Kabinett is an exhilarating wine — vibrant and hauntingly complex aromatics of crushed stone, smoky flint and tingly white peach flesh. Sweet, fleshy lychee flavours combine with honeyed apricot and beeswax to show a deep richness lifted by notes of mint, savoury hints of salinity and spicy cardamom."

Wine Spectator

WS 92
"Distinctive and delicious, showing green apple, lychee and roasted agave flavors flecked with notes of chamomile, green herbs and white pepper. This white's sweetness is well integrated on the densely packed palate through the creamy, lingering and energetic finish. Drink now through 2035. 400 cases made, 233 cases imported."

Wine Enthusiast

WE 90
"Ripe and creamy, with a vibrant structure, this offers flavors of apricot and lime, with a hint of anise. Well structured and intense, just finishing on the coarse side. Give it some time to shine."
