Maximin Grünhaus Winery
The Maximin Grünhaus winery is located in the beautiful Ruwer Valley on the outskirts of Trier. The unique monopollage Maximin Grünhaus with the single vineyards Abtsberg, Herrenberg and Bruderberg is now managed in the 6th generation by Maximin von Schubert, son of Dr. Carl von Schubert. Maximin Grünhaus produces 90% Riesling, 6% Pinot Blanc and 4% Pinot Noir. The wines are characterized by their unforgettable spiciness and minerality and are world-famous!
“With over 1,000 years of viticultural history, the Maximin Grünhäuser monopole vineyards are surrounded by our own forests, meadows and springs. Our actions here are inherently long-term and sustainable, and we are always striving for improvement. FAIR’N GREEN understands our holistic approach and helps us to evaluate objectively in order to become even more sustainable.”

Philosophy
“Framing nature.” Viticulture in the vineyards of the Maximin Grünhaus estate is close to nature with the aim of harvesting fully ripe and healthy grapes. The soils of the three monopole vineyards are planted with natural wild herbs. The health of the grapes is optimally promoted through intensive foliage work.
The optimal location of the cellar at the Maximin Grünhaus winery allows the harvested grapes to be transported to the press within a few minutes. After pressing and clarification, the musts are brought to an optimal fermentation temperature and fermented in classic oak barrels or small stainless steel tanks with natural wild yeasts. The spontaneous fermentation supports the herbal and mineral character of the Riesling, which is so typical of the Ruwer.
