Haven’t had in 3-4 years .Nose is mineral and citrus. Floral but not elite floral as this is an entry level bottling. They have 2-4. It’s still Laible and has that insane palate cling, a terrific core of salty, mineral fruit and florals. And chewy minerals and terrific length. This just stains your palate and has high acid limeade thing that just lasts and lasts. Brilliant stuff. While I only sell the GG’s/Achat and Klingelberger now I still love these little wines at Laible. After a few hours the fruit is terrific on the palate.

16’s in a great place. Nose or sugar snap peas, glorious minerals. Trademark laible florals. Herbal. So aromatic. A few years does wonders! Juicy, savory, herbal and exceedingly mineral, with insane texture and compactness. Insanely pure and delicious. Forget about all your Laible and let it age.

I really really really heart Laible. Huge nose of lanolin, white flowers, clean sea salt and minerals upon minerals. A showstopper of a nose. Terrific palate with waves of pure fruit buffered by serious and intense 2013 acidity. Nobly structured wine needing a decant. Amazing density and complexity even when closed. Brilliant and defines the word expansive.

Amazing.

Nose has sweet minerals. Beautiful.

Palate is rich. A sweet effect. More Macintosh apples than green.

Epic. Liable minerality and acid with a surprising moderate level of fruit. Cerebral with a twist. Wow. Great producer. Bought from Fass selections.
