Another village level off-dry, this is sourced from various parcels on the “Grand Cru” Kupp – as such this is more the equivalent of “Senior.” This is a “Grand Cru” wine declassified and sold at village-level pricing. This tends to be a bit deeper and broader-shouldered than the Fass 4; it has more mineral complexity and more depth.
Ayler has been a regular guest on wine lists in German restaurants since the 1920s and was described in a charming way with the attributes: “natural, flowery, spicy, demanding”. This description has not lost any of its validity over 100 years.

| Mosel Fine Wines | The 2023er Ayler Riesling No. 1 is a just off-dry wine (with 10 g/l of residual sugar) made from fruit harvested on the east-facing side of the main Ayler Kupp hill. It offers a subtly ample and creamy nose made of wet stone, smoke, pear, star fruit, ginger, mint, and earthy spices. The wine proves creamy and intense on the palate and leaves a slightly round but nicely fruity feel in the finish. | No 72 Sep 2024 |
