Weingut Dr Loosen
The Dr. Loosen estate has been in the same family for over 200 years. When Ernst Loosen (pronounced loh-zen) assumed ownership in 1988, he realized that with ungrafted vines averaging 60 years old in some of Germany’s best-rated vineyards, he had the raw materials to create stunningly intense, world-class wines.
To achieve this, Ernst dramatically reduced his crop size and stopped all chemical fertilization, preferring only moderate use of organic fertilizers. And, most importantly, he turned to gentler cellar practices that allow the wine to develop its full potential with a minimum of handling and technological meddling.

Dr. L. Riesling 2010
Snoothrank:
A beautiful pale straw yellow, somewhat dull gold colour to it. On the nose a little yeast and a bouquet of fresh fruit come to mind, apples in particular. On the palate an amazingly clean & fresh taste of green apples entwined with just the subtlest hint of sweetness with a short tart finish. This wine being a white had good bite to it, perhaps...
