Profile & Story

Weingut Peter Lauer, run by fifth-generation winemaker Florian Lauer, farms steep Saar vineyards in Ayl, Saarburg, Wawern, and Wiltingen. 'Barrel X' is an appellation-level, off-dry (feinherb) Riesling blended from all four villages -- Ayl and Wawern contribute fruit and power, Saarburg its racy acidity, and Wiltingen its spice.

Tasting Notes

Off-dry, with bright, fast-moving acidity balancing the residual sugar; notes of citrus, green apple, and a distinct salty minerality on the finish.

Pairing Recommendation

Pairs well with lightly spiced Asian dishes and shellfish, or on its own as an aperitif.
