Description

2010 "G-Max" Riesling trocken, Weingut Keller

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
From the oldest vines, The iconic 2015 Riesling G-Max offers a deep, clear, pure and intense bouquet of ripe seed, stone and a touch of tropical fruits that is perfectly intertwined with smoky crushed limestone, herbal and floral flavors. Dense, round, tight and vivacious on the palate, this is a very pure and mineral Riesling of great finesse and elegance. It is a dense and very complex, yet perfectly balanced, long and stimulatingly salty wine with an intense and persistent fruit core.
A perfect blend of earlier and late harvested grapes that were slowly pressed with the basket press, like all of the crus and sweet wines at Keller.- SR

Decanter:
Named in honour of his great-grandfather Georg and his youngest son Max, Keller's 2015 G-Max is the most in need of serious cellaring of all his dry Rieslings. Notes of lemon, wet stones, fresh bread and white flowers introduce an extraordinarily three-dimensional, complete wine which stains the palate with minerality and lingers through an impossibly long finish. Simply the pinnacle of dry Riesling - and the only thing that keeps the Morstein and Abtserde from receiving a perfect score.
