Dr. Loosen L Riesling embodies the elegant and racy character of Mosel Riesling. This crowd-pleasing wine is made in a refreshing and fruity style, that finds balance in a fine mineral edge that is typical of the region. The grapes for this wine come exclusively from vineyards found amongst the slopes of the Mosel.
Viticulture
The Mosel’s stony soil and numerous rocky outcroppings warm the vineyards by reflecting sunlight and holding the heat of the day. This creates very warm microclimates in the best sites and helps to ensure excellent ripeness. The thin topsoil forces the vines to dig deep through the cliff for water and nutrients, producing vibrant wines that capture the forceful minerality of the soil.
Vinification
This wine is vinified in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
Recommendation
Spicy, salty dishes. Hard cheeses, Asian Cuisine
