2015 Kupp Riesling Spätlese Faß 23 Versteigerung Peter Lauer, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer

Mosel Fine Wines: This offers a superb but quite reduced nose of exotic fruits, passion fruit, ginger and herbs. A touch of whipped cream gives the nose a hint of Auslese character but any such feel is whipped out on the palate by a gloriously mouthwatering and zesty acidity (the wine has 12 g/l acidity!). The tension in this wine is simply remarkable. Think of this of a delicate yet electrifying clean Auslese Eiswein. The finish is all about fruits and minerals. What a remarkable and individualistic wine! We would not be surprised if this will even gain with bottle age as the acidity blends into the wine. 2025-2040. - Aug. 2016
