I've bought my latest copies at a local book store in Trier. If you need any further assistance, please feel free to write me an email: lc@moselwinemerchant.com. Best, Lars Hi Jason,

I see here that you have a partial scan of Herr Lauer's areas. Do you have anything else you might be willing to digitize? Perhaps you know of a source for reproductions of the maps? Many thanks, Jason Lefler Hi there,

We cannot wait to offer Lauer's wines on the East Coast and should have a few selections from him in NYC by September. Instead of a capsule, Florian Lauer has a small paper strip, matching his label, wrapped below the lip of the bottle that reads in cursive <em>handverlesen</em> (hand picked) with <em>trocken</em> or <em>feinherb</em>, for instance. His so-called dry-designated wines are often slightly above 9 grams per liter residual sugar, for this reason his decision to avoid putting the term on the label. Likewise, his feinherb wines, such as Ayler Kupp "Kern," can be well over 30 g/l RS. As you probably know, some growers use the term feinherb instead of halbtrocken, then it usually means 9 to 18 g/l RS. Thanks, David.

Can't wait to have the opportunity to drink Lauer's wines. Am I correct in assuming that Florian designates this wine as trocken in his own communications and approach but not on the bottle itself?

Excellent post - awesome wines. Lauer battles Rebholz as the master of monumental acidity, shivering transparency. Maybe even more impressive as their structures are so much more cut, delineated.

I love these wines and their incredible acid structures and clingy mineral length. Amazing wines I hope to see on US soil one day. Great post!
