Just as good if not better than I remembered it! I love the high acidity. It is a mix of underripe and bruised apples plus herbs and spices. Perfect for summer! — 3 years ago

Lovely nose despite deceitfully rich gold color. Pears, smoke, spice, apple skin. Lovely. Some wet stones as well. Palate is textured and ripe but with wonderful juiciness. Great acids and cleanliness. Sappy and pure. Really nice. Complex mineral and acid driven finish. — 6 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

Richer, denser, with more weight yet still very fresh, very fine and with loads of character.
Cherries & cranberries galore with touch of undergrowth, mushrooms and herby spice.
On the palate this is not that light, with slightly chewy yet very juicy tannins, brilliant acidity, a tea like mouthfeel. Complex, layered, elegant. This is quite exceptional! — 3 years ago

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

Zero fruit on the nose. Mineral. Flinty. Lovely. But it will get more aromatic with age. Palate is filthy good. Amazing balance and presence with superb minerals and purity. So long. It’s just ridiculously great. — 5 years ago
