A dreamy masterpiece for this very challenging vintage, with so many delicate floral nuances and citrus aromas (everything from lemon blossom to freshly grated zest). Medium-bodied with a very long, racy and pointed...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, December 2015

From the oldest vines, the 2014 Riesling G-Max has a very subtle, fresh and precise aroma that is clearly affected from limestone terroir; it shows some herbal flavors such as thyme. Clear, piquant and juicy on the...

The 2014 Weingut Keller Riesling G Max is a splendid expression of the Riesling grape, emanating from the prestigious Rheinhessen region of Germany. This white wine is a testament to the expertise and dedication of its producer, Weingut Keller, a name that is synonymous with the highest echelons of German viticulture.

The wine's color is a radiant, crystal-clear straw, hinting at the purity and precision contained within. The nose is an amalgamation of nuanced, refined aromas. Expect wafts of green apple, lime peel, and a distinct minerality so characteristic of top-tier Riesling. Underpinning these vibrant fruits is a subtle hint of petrol, a complex aroma that true Riesling aficionados will appreciate and recognize.

On the palate, the 2014 Weingut Keller Riesling G Max is a masterclass in balance and intensity. The fruit flavors echo the nose, with crisp apple and tart citrus taking center stage. The wine's mineral backbone, almost flinty in its nature, provides a taut structure, culminating in an incredibly long and layered finish. Despite its intensity, the wine maintains a sense of refreshing lightness, a testament to the exceptional vintage of 2014.

This is a wine that deserves careful contemplation and would be an exceptional partner to a variety of cuisines, from Asian-inspired dishes to traditional German fare. The 2014 Weingut Keller Riesling G Max is not merely a wine; it's an exploration of the possibilities of the Riesling grape, a journey guided by one of Germany's most esteemed wineries.
