Wine Advocate: 91 Points
The 2018 Maximin Grünhaus Riesling Monopol blends fruit from the three grand crus and opens with clear, aromatic mango fruit and, after a while, lots of flinty notes of crushed stones. Silky, pure and enormously salty on the palate, this is a stunning, complex, tensioned and almost challenging Estate Riesling with lingering salinity and immense complexity and charisma. A spectacular wine at this price point.
Vinous: 89 Points
Fresh lime, apple and white currant dominate the nose and the firm, attractively buoyant palate. Zest, skin and seed supply invigorating tang, while subtle salinity lends salivary stimulation on a brightly juicy, admirably refreshing finish. This represents a significant advance over its vintage 2017 counterpart, thereby anticipating the von Schuberts' entire 2018 collection.
