Max Kilburg 2024s
Max Kilburg 2024s
Even as the 20th generation winemaker of his family's historic estate, Max Kilburg has quickly begun to make a name for himself. With his first vintage (in 2019) leading Mosel Fine Wines to call his Kabinetts, "firm, precise, racy, and hugely profound," it's clear something special is happening here! Since starting in 2019, Max has expanded a little bit, acquiring an older-vine parcel in Ohligsberg Grand Cru but in truth he is barely farming two hectares of his own vines. But as we know, sometimes the smallest are the mightiest. Max has since taken Riesling drinkers by storm!
The current release (and everything we are offering today) comes from the 2024 vintage. A vintage very small in size but one where quality shines, especially with Kabinett styles. Stephen of Vom Boden said, "As I've tasted more and more of the vintage, I'm getting more and more tired of trying to be restrained or overly judicious. The vintage is just stunning - easily a modern day classic vintage, one of the best of the last two decades. For me personally, it is up there with 2002, 2004, 2008, 2016, 2017 and 2021."
