Peter Lauer
VDP Grosse Lage Saarfeilser Faß 13 Riesling
Actually my first ever Lauer. Cannot believe that myself..:: served blind, I started off in Rheinhessen (maybe Wittman?) but finally decided upon a GV from Alzinger in Wachau. Liked it very much but lacked Mosel tension, slate minerality and racy acidity impressive concentration. Very good wine, hoping to be something else?

Jan 30th, 2016Cheesy leezy Lauer. Found this bottling a little more tropical than I would have love but mouthwateringly delicious nonetheless.

Jun 10th, 2015Always love getting into a Lauer. Initially pretty tight and closed, but over time, those lime-pith and dill infused aromatics built to reveal a deeply complex wine with decades ahead of it. Savoury, nuanced, timeless.

May 1st, 2015Amazing acidity and aromatics and the softest touch of glycerin in the mid and through the finish.

Mar 5th, 2015Delicious, but may need some more time to develop the tertiary aromatics that I know are lurking.
