Maximin Gruenhaeuser Herrenberg - Riesling 2009

Back after almost 2 years! Here a review of a Riesling. Having put my order through for the 2009 Bordeaux en primeur, which will only be delivered in 2012, I have recently decided I would research a bit about Rieslings, given, also that I have relocated and now live in close proximity to the world's best Riesling near the Mosel! I bought this bottle, alongside another 2009 Riesling from a good wine shop in Trier, Germany. I first had a wine tasting of 5 Rieslings for Euros 6.50 which I thought was brilliant value for money. I like the Riesling Kabinett Trocken, which is why I selected two. They are dry, crisp, light coloured with a hint of green, smell absolutely gorgeous of apple, citrus and apricots. When drunk on a hot summers day like today (30 degrees) it is absolutely refreshing, delicious, and for me at least, ticking all the boxes for a dry white wine. Get it for just over ten Euros! It also matures well apparently.
