DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Dr. Loosen is a family estate in Bernkastel on the Mosel, owned by the same family for more than 200 years and run by Ernst Loosen since 1988. Urziger Wurzgarten is one of its top sites, a steep amphitheater of red, iron-rich volcanic rock planted with old, own-rooted vines.
Auslese means the grapes were picked very ripe, by hand, often with some noble rot, so this is a sweet Riesling. The estate describes recent vintages with mango, pineapple, citrus and honey, plus herbal and spice notes, and lively acidity to balance the sugar. Sweet, and never cloying.
Serve it chilled, around 46-52F, in a white wine glass. Try it with Thai curry, dim sum, blue cheese, duck liver pate or a fruit tart. Wines like this age for many years, so it is also a good bottle to tuck away.
Bottle size: 750ml
