Weingut Peter Lauer

Cold and mineral-rich but with sun that makes Rieslings as succulent as they are perfectly seasoned with salt and racy acidity. Peter Lauer makes some of our very favorite Saar wines. He’s best known for his forward-leaning dry wines.

Description

Peter Lauer Faß 2 Ayl Riesling Trocken 2021

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Riesling, from slate slopes in Ayl, Saar, Germany

Taste Profile: A head full of spice up front dances with layered fruit, smoke, roasting herbs, and stone fruit. The palate is fine and silky with balanced fruit flowing into a lovely, focused dry finish and a gentle sea breeze and spice lingering on the palate. A wine that cuts a fantastic figure with strong or salty-spicy dishes.

Winemaking Process: The fruit is mash fermented & undergoes wild yeast fermentation, followed by barrel ageing on lees

Aromatic & Floral Whites

A lot of the wines in this category comes generally come from higher altitude or cooler climate regions, and often have bright acidity, balanced with fruitiness that cam come with or without some level of sweetness.

They general have perfumed floral, honeyed & spice notes. For fuller bodied styles, they often have an oiliness to them
