Peter Lauer Ayler Feinherb No 1 Riesling Trocken, Mosel, Germany 2022

Quite smoky and herbal at first, it offers a rather opulent and rich nose of almond cream, toffee, yellow peach, rosemary, and candied lime. The wine starts off on the fruity and light side, yet it gains in presence and structure as it evolves. The finish is delicately smooth and broad, with plenty of spices and still a hint of tartness in need of integration. It needs a little bit of time to find its right balance and fully deliver. This is a good off-dry Riesling.
