A lovely Mosel Riesling with a lot of minerality and a hint of stewed apple, cantaloupe and dried orange flavors. The finish is long and clean, making it quite quaffable.
The Hansen Lauer Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling goes well with turkey and seafood.
"Fragrant notes of jasmine and Mirabelle plum extend from nose to finish in this sleek, powerfully perfumed white. While nearly dry on the palate, it's packed with mouthwatering white peach and grapefruit flavors that linger sweetly on the finish. A vibrantly balanced, blossomy Riesling that's a peak now. - ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA"

"Crisp green apple and grapefruit on the nose turn riper on the palate of this light-bodied but richly concentrated white. Off-dry and plush in fruit, it's balanced neatly by zippy lime acidity. The finish is long and marked by a hint of dry earth. Best enjoyed young. - ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA"

"This is rich and ripe, with notes of wet slate and petrol grounding the fruity notes of baked apple and yellow plum. Six months on the lees contributed to its mouthfilling texture, building a riesling that’s rich enough to take on a pork tenderloin."

"Delicate lemon, lime and orange blossom aromas intensify on the palate of this fresh, fruity Riesling. Just a shade off dry, its tropical pineapple and melon flavors balance neatly against brisk acidity and a steely mineral finish. Enjoy now–2022. - Anna Lee C. Iijima"

Go To Hansen Lauer Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling
"The 2016 Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling is a good effort that has a balanced, off-dry, delicious style as well as notes of honeyed minerality and quince. It’s a good value and ideal for drinking over the coming couple of years."

"Piercing quince and tangerine flavors brighten this deeply rocky, smoky wine that's full of earthy, savory complexity. Delicate and off-dry, it balances juicy citrus flavors withpert acidity. The finish is refreshingly brisk and dry."
