Other Reviews....
The clear and fresh, citrus-yellow colored 2017 Uhlen Blaufüsser Lay shows a beautifully fine and intense bouquet of perfectly ripe Riesling berries with crunchy slate aromas and a tropical touch. Full-bodied, intense and enormously salty on the palate, this is a very fine and long Uhlen with sexy fruit and elegant texture. Crystalline but lush and assertive, this has grip and tension and a remarkable intensity. Another great wine from winemaker Kathrin Starke and her boss Reinhard Löwenstein. Tasted during the preview of the GG wines in Wiesbaden in August 2018.

Stephan Reinhardt - Wine Advocate #239 (Nov 2018)

Very concentrated, but the sleekest and most filigree of this producer's trio of single-terroir wines from the Uhlen site. The blue slate of these terraces has given this a lemon and mint character, plus just a hint of peach. Very long finish that feels almost weightless.
