What is this wine?
Peter Lauer’s Riesling “Barrel X” 2024 is a dry-to-off-dry Riesling from the Saar Valley, a cool-climate subregion of the Mosel in Germany. Florian Lauer, one of Germany’s most admired Riesling producers, farms steep slate vineyards around the village of Ayl. Barrel X is his “introductory” cuvée, sourced from multiple Saar sites and vinified in traditional German fass (oak barrels) using only native yeasts. It reflects the precision, energy, and minerality that define the estate’s style.

Why get this wine?
Few wines offer as much personality and craftsmanship at this price. Barrel X captures the essence of Saar Riesling—vivid acidity, crystalline fruit, and just a touch of residual sweetness for balance. The 2024 vintage shows exceptional clarity and tension, making it an ideal choice for both Riesling newcomers and longtime fans of Lauer’s world-class wines.

What does this wine taste like?
Aromas of lime, white peach, and green apple mingle with notes of crushed slate and herbs. The palate is juicy yet taut, with bright acidity, delicate fruit sweetness, and a long, mineral-driven finish. Perfectly poised between refreshment and complexity.

When should you drink this wine?
Enjoy now for its vibrant energy or cellar through 2032. Serve well chilled with sushi, spicy Asian dishes, seafood, or soft cheeses.

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
