Carl Loewen Maximin Herrenberg GG '22 0.75L

Maximin Herrenberg's sharpest point is the origin of Carl Loewen's Grosses Gewachs. In this parcel the shale is harder and poorer. Extreme conditions for man and the vine. The iron content of the shale is so high, it makes the shale red. In 1902 this part of Maximin Herrenberg was planted. These very old authoritarian vines still stand today and give great potential to this complex wine. Maximin Herrenberg GG always offers extremely intense ripe fruit, like ripe pears. Also, aromas of wild herbs combine with the mouth which is salty with aromas of stone fruit and slate.

The tradition of the winery dates back to the year 1803. Their ancestors bought vines in Maximiner Klosterlay during the time of secularization under Napoleon. To this day the winery has its roots in these vineyards. In 2008 they bought the Carl Schmitt-Wagner winery and with it a real oenological cultural monument.

His vineyard at Maximin Herrenberg was planted in 1896 with ungrafted vines and still remains in its original form. This makes it one of the oldest Riesling vineyards in the world. In a high-quality terroir and with old vines is where the grapes ripen. Loewen tries to make these natural treasures flourish in the winery with only minimal intervention. Their philosophy is oriented towards traditional winemaking, which they interpret in a modern way.
