The 2006 Riesling G-Max was served blind after the 2003 as the sixth wine of the G-Max vertical. It is clear, with rather cool and slightly smoky fruit as well as herbal and citric notes and those of pencil tips. Dense, juicy and spicy, with a fine tannin structure on the palate, this 2006 shows the first nuances of age but structurally remains a taut, even quite youthful G-Max. There are not that many dry 2006 Rieslings of this class in Germany after rainfalls had met warm temperatures in early October after a beautiful summer that let the grapes ripen early. The resulting thin skins were very vulnerable for the onset of botrytis that, in the end, forced the producers to a very speedy but super selective harvest. There were only a very few great dry 2006 Rieslings produced in Germany that year, and Keller's G-Max is one of them. Tasted at Steinheuer's Restaurant Zur Alten Post, Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler, in January 2024.
