40th anniversary tasting (L'Esprit du Vin - Axelborg): My notes from this fantastic gigantic tasting are in general extremely short (because of the many wines) but with ratings. We spent a whole day tasting and tasting quality wines.
This wine: An impressive Mosel-house. I scored almost all the cuvees 90 and above and many of them in the mid-1990s. This cuvee was Magnum and was the very best of the tasted Maximin Grunhaus wines.96+

Auction wines from Mosel - Germany 2018 (Versteigerung weine) (LEdV): Sweet. Very special cuvee as the vines are only 3 years old, which means this vintage is the first harvest. Clearly on the nose which does not have the usual intensity as well as the aromas are not as welldefined as a regular top Auslese harvested from older vines. However still higher intensity than the auction Kabinett from same vineyard and same producer and same year (flight 1). The palate is extremely nice and wins by closer acquaintance.

香气上有红枣糕加酸枣糕的味道,还有各种桃杏果脯,嗅觉上就很酸,但是香气表达很松散。随后会出现一些脂粉和干荷叶碎的味道,比较杂,让人摸不着头脑。口中结构也松散,酸度高但是有横冲直撞的感觉,味道在果脯,酸枣糕,蜂蜜等之外还有点红茶,但是后段力量感也在减弱。

Very clean, with some roundness retained. Great performance from a not-great year.

@ Versteigerung in Trier. Had to create this wine, so I hope I did well. Pretty good value this Auction Auslese, passion fruit and apricot.
