2012 Wegeler Lay Riesling Feinherb

Post by djewesbury »

Drunk at the Wegeler winery in Bernkastel with Norbert Breit on 12th August 2014.

A 'Grosse Lage' or Grand Cru, as designated in the VDP's 'quality pyramid'.

This is delicious, with a biscuity toasty note that reminds of autolytic flavours that I like in champagne. A fascinating flavour profile.

I found this note in my little black book: "very earthy nose, what a nose!, nice slim body, very good, one to buy at home"
