Maximin Grünhaus - von Schubert

Each in its own way, the past three vintages here have all been exceptional. A decade ago, this statement would have provoked little more than a yawn among most collectors, but today it's proof that, after a long detour, Dr. Carl von Schubert and his winemaker Stefan Kraml have put this estate back on track without sacrificing its individual style. The entry-level dry rieslings can still be a touch lean, but the kabinett and spatlese from the Abtsberg vineyard are at the top of their class. This inimitable label is again one that you can buy blind.
