This is the entry level Riesling of the Loosen range, which is made in a bright, vibrant, fruit driven style. Fruit is sourced from contracted growers located throughout the Mosel River Valley who work very closely with brothers Ernst and Thomas Loosen to achieve excellent fruit quality and concentration every vintage.
Brilliant very pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Blossoming from the glass are scents of ripe lime, red apple and honeysuckle followed by orange blossom, mandarin and a light minerality. Delicious red apple and fresh lime fruits decorate the mouth underpinned by racy acidity. Subtle notions of honeysuckle, light infusions of orange blossom and a spritzy minerality make an appearance on the back half. Finishes slightly off dry, zesty and long.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 12%
