  March 13, 2017 - Blind tasted, showing bruised apple, bruised pear, yellow flowers. I said Savennieres, others said Riesling.

  February 12, 2017 - Some strange off tastes on opening, though it calmed down about 20 minutes later. Agree that is has a bit of a grassy thing going on, and this vintage seems like a combination of slightly bitter apples and tropical fruits/bananas. Relatively full mouthfeel, could use some more acidity to balance out in the finish (imagine, a Lauer that needs more acidity!). Weirdly get the slightest hint of alcohol - the label says 12.5 though I think it's higher. Barely off-dry. Definitely has been improving the longer it's open. I'll probably save my last bottle for another 5 years for science.

  January 29, 2017 - Despite some folks describing this as a dry wine, I feel this is clearly in the feinherb category. It is a beautiful, balanced wine. I just wish I could find more Lauer wines in the Chicagoland marketplace. It is becoming increasingly frustrating to find quality wines, especially Riesling in Chicago.

  July 28, 2016 - A bit shrill when cold (not surprising), really rounds out nicely with some air and warmth but still missing some balance. Good, not great.

  August 30, 2015 - Similar experience as previous bottle. Outstanding value. Intensely mineral nose. Light weight mid palate, yet loads of dry extract. Good long finish.
