2001 Maximin Grnhuser Riesling Herrenberg Sptlese

Much more approachable than I expected. A nice juicy layer of sweet fruit undercut by a crisp verdant and mineral girding. Starting to mature in the texture and the flavors and there are probably only good things ahead, but this was very well-received at the dinner table tonight and was easy to enjoy. No complaints at all.

Nice to hear this is coming around, Rahsaan. I've been holding out on '01 spat in general.

I was surprised myself. I bought it this afternoon because I needed something for dinner and this was calling to my sense of curiosity. Even if I was fully prepared to find something awkward. And fully prepared to disregard the clerk who assured me that he had been enjoying it recently.

But, it was a pleasant surprise. I may go back and buy some more!
