The 2020 MarMar is a barrel selection based on the fruits of a cool and chalky plot of the Forster Ungeheuer grand cru. Pretty different from all the other Rieslings of the domaine, the MarMar opens with intense and concentrated ripe fruit intermingled with iodine notes and also sur lie and oak aromas. Round, lush and creamy on the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense and powerful, concentrated, sweet and saline Riesling with fine tannins and lingering vibrancy. It is most likely a long-distance runner, with a long, tight, intense and warm finish, yet its too rich and not stimulating enough for immediate pleasures, if you ask me. It's a rare and expensive Riesling. ~ Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Weingut von Winning is a wine producer based in the town of Deidesheim in the Pfalz region of western Germany. It is a founding member of the VDP (the Verband Deutscher Prädikats – an association of Germany's top wine producers) and produces a range of wines made from Riesling from premium vineyards in the villages of Ruppertsberg, Deidesheim and Forst.The estate was founded in 1849 by Dr. Andreas Deinhard. His son-in-law, Leopold von Winning, took control of the estate in 1907, and raised the quality and profile of the wines. The estate changed ownership in 1918 (its name became Weingut Dr. Deinhard) and it was not until 2009 that the estate's former name was restored. Today, wines are made under both the Von Winning and Dr. Deinhard labels. Weingut von Winning holds around 64 hectares (158 acres) of vineyard land, 85 percent of which is planted to Riesling. The estate's classified Grosses Gewächs sites include: Kirchenstück, Jesuitengarten and Pechstein in Forst; Kalkofen, L
