Riesling

Situated on Germany's Mosel River among some of the world's most treasured vineyards, the Dr. Loosen estate has been in the same family for more than 200 years. When Ernst Loosen assumed ownership in 1988, he realized that, with ungrafted vines averaging 60 years old in some of Germany's top-rated vineyards, he had the raw materials to create stunningly intense, world-class Rieslings. At harvest, he insisted on fully mature fruit that had been very strictly selected. And he turned to gentlercellar practices that would allow the wine to develop its full potential with a minimum of technological meddling. Today, Dr. Loosen wines are widely enjoyed around the globe and continue to receive awards and accolades from top reviewers.910073
