Drove back towards Trier -- loving the 280km/h commute -- and wound my way to Mertesdorf to meet with Dr Carl von Schubert at Maximin Grunhaus.
We tasted through the range of 2009s, ending with a sensational eiswein, then settled in for lunch with his wife and eldest son.
Loving the lamb lettuce here ... weird name though!
Had a 1981 Herrenberg Kabinett and 1988 Herrenberg Jungfeinweine for lunch, then headed back to Erden.
There I ran through the Schmitges lineup, now resplendent in Stelvin Lux closures for every single wine.
Again, an awesome eiswein completed the lineup. Then I wandered down the road for a typical stodgy German mean and a painfully chemical weissbier.
