2016 Peter Lauer 'Stirn' Ayler Kupp Fass 15 Riesling Mosel, Germany

Off Dry Riesling 9.5% ABV

Winery's Note: Riesling from the summit ridge of Ayler Kupp

Stirn is located high up Ayler Kupp. Optimally oriented to the south and steep, the Riesling vines catch a maximum of sunrays here. The ground is littered with coarse slate stones and is shallow. The water flows rapidly down into the valley. The vines, therefore, have to be deeply rooted in the rock to give the old vines with their small berries extract. Elegant, almost weightless, with invigorating, cool minerality, Stirn is a great Saar site.
