Note di degustazione
Two of the numerous parcels that characteristically inform Lauer’s Fass 7 are some 60 years old, and in 2018 he elected to bottle their fruits separately, leaving this Fass 7 dominated by 20- to 30-year-old vines. (Following a recently established Lauer convention, this wine carries its usual A.P. #7 while the old vines bottling bears A.P. #71.) Very ripe peach and passion fruit inform a heady nose. They are then unexpectedly joined by a tingling jolt of citricity to deliver a bright, succulently fruity palate impression. The feel is polished and lightly glossy. The vibrantly penetrating, long-lasting finish is correspondingly refreshing despite its prominent sweetness. With time, I suspect that this lusciously fruity, already irresistible libation will reveal further facets.

The 2018 Kupp Spätlese Fass 7 is precise, coolish and fresh on the bright, crystalline, flinty-scented and slatey nose. Lush and round on the palate, this is a precise, salty-mineral, straightforward and refreshing Spätlese based on overripe grapes yet without any botrytis. Stimulating grip and tension here. Tasted in June 2019.
Cask sample. Relatively closed on the nose. Sweet and ripe like lemon and pineapple chunks on the palate. Very sweet with underlying grapefruit freshness. Needs time. (JH)
