2020 Weingut Carl Loewen Riesling Maximin Herrenberg G.G. 0,75 Liter

Weingut Carl Loewen Riesling Maximin Herrenberg G.G. 2020, from Germany’s Mosel, is a 100% Riesling from the historic Maximin Herrenberg vineyard, planted in 1896 on red slate soils. The nose offers a vibrant bouquet of cassis, lemon zest, and white peach, layered with smoky minerality and flint. The palate is full-bodied, bone-dry with vibrant acidity, delivering flavors of citrus, stone fruit, and a pronounced mineral core, with a refined, lingering finish. Fermented spontaneously and aged in neutral oak fuders, it reflects Carl Loewen’s traditional yet precise winemaking. The 2020 vintage, praised for its intensity, produced a wine of remarkable depth, ideal for pairing with robust fish dishes or aged cheeses. Its concentrated fruit and mineral structure make it a collector’s gem, showcasing Maximin Herrenberg’s rare terroir. With exceptional aging potential, this Grosses Gewächs offers enthusiasts a profound expression of Mosel’s winemaking heritage.
