2023 Peter Lauer, Riesling Feils Fass 13 Grosses Gewachs, Saar, Germany
$58.00
"The 2023 Feils as it is referred to on the central part of the label (GG is written top left), is a bone-dry wine (with less than 3 g/l of residual sugar) made with fruit picked on this south-south-east facing lieu-dit overseeing the Saar (legally part of the Ayler Kupp vineyard). It has a superbly concentrated and fresh nose of candied lemon, grapefruit, minty herbs, greengage, smoke, and spearmint. It also shows some density on the palate, which develops a nice creaminess and broader side as it develops. The finish has great length and intensity, as well as focus with mineral and salty elements coming through. This is an intense, yet refined expression of dry Riesling in the making." Mosel Fine Wines, No. 72
