Peter Lauer VDP Grosse Lage Saarfeilser Faß 13 Riesling 2015

Florian's general style is exactly the opposite of his famous Saar neighbors Egon Muller and Hanno Zilliken. At Lauer, the focus is on dry-tasting Rieslings as opposed to the residual sugar wines of the latter two. Employing natural-yeast fermentations, Lauer's wines find their own balance. They tend to be more textural, deeper and more masculine. They have a preternatural sense of balance, an energy that is singular. Yet the hallmarks of the Saar are there: purity, precision, rigor, mineral.
