Peter Lauer Riesling Unterstenberg #12
| Vintage: | 2020 |

| Description: | James Suckling - 94 Points Brimming with stone fruit and ripe melon with just a whiff of smoked bacon. Powerful and well-structured, but the generous fruit dominates until you reach the bold, mineral finish, which is pretty dry. Drink or hold. Mosel Fine Wines - 94 Points The 2020er Unterstenberg #12, as it is referred to in the central part of the label, comes from this prime Lieu-Dit forming the south-southwest facing, front part of the original Kupp hill (at the foot of the hill), and was fermented down to dry levels of residual sugar (8 g/l). It offers a captivating and most refreshing nose of minty herbs, smoke, lime, spices (including ginger), white peach, and greengage. The wine develops more fruity elements on the palate, yet leaves a spicy and herbal feel in the superbly long, airy, and fully dry finish. The aftertaste is hugely minty, salty, and smoky, with some bitter-sweet tartness still in need of integration. This is a great dry Riesling in the making! 2025-2040 (Reprint from Mosel Fine Issue No 57 July 2021) |
