Leiwener Laurentiuslay 'Alte Reben' Riesling Erste Lage Trocken
Variety: Riesling
Region: Mosel
Vineyard: Laurentiuslay
Soil: Grey Slate
Fermentation & Élevage: Spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tank
Portions of the Laurentiuslay vineyard are quite rocky, with its 40 to 80 percent slope rises in some places over the Mosel and is visible from far away, the Mosel downhill. Therefore, the vines are unshaded and benefit in their south-southwest orientation almost all day long from intense sunlight – the climate is hot but still well ventilated by the open position of the GL. The gray Devoschiefer also stores the heat throughout the day and gives it to the vines at night.

"I love the very deep and cool peachy aromas of this extremely classic dry Mosel riesling. Very sleek and focused in spite of the excellent ripeness, this is as poised as a prima ballerina. Very long, focused, almost steely finish that's so polished. Vegan. Drink or hold."
