Dry Riesling from old vines in the lower Unterstenberg slope of Ayler Kupp, where centuries of slate weathering create profound minerality. Florian Lauer, fifth generation at this estate founded in 1830, produces this dense, salty wine with complex smoky notes. Indigenous yeast fermentation allows the wine to find its own balance, characteristic of Lauer's natural approach.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2024 Riesling Ayler Kupp Unterstenberg No. 12 is from the deeper soils of the lower reaches of the Ayler Kupp. Yeastiness on the nose blends in with smooth, ripe yellow and green apple against a backdrop of slate. The palate has a phenolic edge, lovely body and mouthfeel, plus a well of saltiness that seems to have its root in stone. The 2024 is a dry, beautifully textured Riesling." -Anne Krebiehl MW

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!
