Product Description
With over 200 years of family history, Dr. Loosen has become one of the world's most celebrated names in Riesling, transforming ungrafted 60-year-old vines into breathtaking expressions of terroir. The Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spätlese 2023 earns 93 points from Wine Advocate, with Ernst Loosen's minimal-intervention approach — strict crop restriction, organic farming, and gentle cellar handling — coaxing the full intensity of the legendary "sundial" vineyard's blue slate soils into every bottle.
Loved for its elegance and racy precision, this Dr. Loosen Riesling opens with jasmine, apricot, and lime, leading to a round, crystalline palate of lemon, loquat, and candied ginger. Balanced residual sweetness and salivating slate-driven acidity create a hauntingly persistent, refreshing finish.
