Peter Lauer Riesling No 12 Unterstenberg 2023 750ml

No 12 Unterstenberg



The 2023er Unterstenberg N°12, as it is referred to in the central part of the label, is a dry wine made from fruit picked in the similarly-named prime Lieu-Dit forming the south-southwest facing, front part of the original Kupp hill (at the foot of the hill). It has a beautifully complex and smoky nose of candied lime, grapefruit zest, smoky bacon, ginger, almond, yuzu, and white flowers. The wine is always superbly playful and refined on the palate, where some light creamy and juicy elements make for an appealing touch. The finish is beautifully spicy and herbal and already fully dry.
