Dr. Loosen Riesling 2018

WINE NOTES:

This extremely popular introductory wine embodies the elegant and racy style of classic Mosel Riesling. It is refreshing and fruity, with a fine mineral edge that is typical of the region. The grapes used to make Dr. Loosen come exclusively from traditional vineyards with steep slopes and slate soil. We call them our “Mosel Ambassador”:

• 100% Riesling
• 100% from slate soils
• Steep slope vineyards

The 2015 vintage also gave us excellent yield, with a beautiful balance of ripeness and acidity. The wines are dense and concentrated, but with delicate and graceful style of the Mosel.

TASTING NOTES:

• Stone fruit aroma, such as white peach, green apple and lemon
• Elegant minerality and fine acidity
