2015 Lauer Riesling Barrel X
Another wine that Brett and Laura brought over the Labor Day weekend was this 2015 Lauer Riesling Barrel X. This is another wine that Brett procured from Federal Wine and Spirits in Boston, MA. This is the third wine that we tried along with the 2015 Julian Haart Riesling 1000L, with our Asian meal. Brett told us that it might be a little fizzy (petillant or sparkling are other words that can be used for intentional fizz). Indeed, there were a few bubbles that emanated from the pour. Like the Julian Haart Riesling, this Saar Riesling was made dry. There were a lot of aromatics in the nose and the finish reminded me somewhat of a Gewürztraminer, so I wonder is there a bit of Gewürztraminer in the wine?
This is another wine under $20.00 and a good value.
