2014 Andreas Laible Weisser Burgunder Kabinett Trocken. Very animated nose. Floral, apply/tart peach, clean stony minerals, talcum powder. Richly fruited in the mouth, super clean, with a pillow-like texture. Not as complex tasting as the nose, but a lot of character. Good acidity. Easy drinking but with benefits. — 8 years ago
Probably one the best wines I have had! This was Christmas Eve 2014, but I still remember it! — 8 years ago
Alpine Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Petit Manseng? Super cool and surprising. Nice palate weight from the Chard, nervy herbal tension from the PB and PM. Captivating. Thanks @Patrick Ballow #OliverMcCrum — 9 years ago
Just excellent! The nose, palate, balance and complexity. Really enjoyable. — 9 years ago
Andreas nails it again. Lots going on, great acid — 10 years ago
Loving Saturdays Giro wine. — 11 years ago
This is the kind of thing you can only get inexpensively in Europe. Crispness belying it’s age. The vegetal notes from the Sauvignon balanced by the Chardonnay. I’d love to try it again in a decade. This was superb. — 6 years ago
Highly aromatic, apricot, full-bodied, medium alcohol. — 6 years ago
Breaktime from Xmas shopping with a refreshing lift from the Isarco Valley. Kerner is a personal favorite. With its lilting crisp acidity, white florals, honey, slate, and ripe green apple. Tiny bit of flabbiness which I'll chalk up to a bad vintage but makes up for it with a reasonably long finish. — 7 years ago
Oh my. Stunning stuff! Tastes like citrus and stones. Wish I had more. — 8 years ago
Drank this a few nights ago, very interesting. Good acidity, aroma and flavors. Thanks Alessandro! — 8 years ago
intenso di profumi di fiori e frutta, la pera soprattutto, grande freschezza che rimbalza per tutta la bocca, un gran corpo per un bianco, una bella struttura è un discreto equilibrio per quanto un vino così possa essere equilibrato, lungo nel finale con un retrogusto di mandorle fresche — 8 years ago
One of my all time favorites. Great acidity with loads of lychee and pear fruit. Another gorgeous gem from Andreas. — 9 years ago
Pacherhof Sylvaner. Medium body, crisp with the right amount of fruit and hint of acacia and toasted almond... — 10 years ago

Mindboggling Scheurebe!! Nose of herbal elements like sage and lavender over grapefruit and passion fruit. Wow. So wafting. Palate is complex and chewy with stunning balance and purity. It’s so well woven and integrated. Wow. Long and complex finish keeps pushing. — 6 years ago
Explosive, blazingly bright, aromatic fireworks. — 6 years ago
Green Muscat from Austria. This is the first time I've had this varietal. Very unique nose of soap stone. Really enjoyed this wine. Kudos to Dr Carney. — 8 years ago
Ayako m'a dit "tu connais ce vin, mais goûte".
Ok... Toujours aussi bien, ce sauvignon blanc d'Andreas Tscheppe. C'est minéral, carré, du vin sérieux, bien dégagé derrière les oreilles, autrichien, quoi. "Il est vif, hein ? Pourtant, j'ai ouvert la bouteille il y a un mois !"...
Ne sauvignonne pas du tout. — 8 years ago
A curiosity. — 8 years ago
I really really really heart Laible. Huge nose of lanolin, white flowers, clean sea salt and minerals upon minerals. A showstopper of a nose. Terrific palate with waves of pure fruit buffered by serious and intense 2013 acidity. Nobly structured wine needing a decant. Amazing density and complexity even when closed. Brilliant and defines the word expansive. — 9 years ago
Amazing! Fragrant and fruity, sweet and earthy. 2007 but could have a few more years. — 10 years ago
Pinotman /// Andreas
Importer is Lyle Fass. Not available in Retail. So much Riesling fruit! Quite tropical and rich. Mango, 🥝, Gooseberry. Seems to have a hint of sweetness. Plenty of acid. It’s so overwhelming right now and needs more time to settle down. Grown on granite i think on the slopes of the Black Forest. — 5 years ago
