O Produtor, tasting note published in August 15th 2023
Pure and fragrant white peach and calcareous mineral tones collide in this dry and fresh Riesling. With a firm finish, it is a remarkable value for a sophisticated and easy-drinking wine that is likely to please many. Best enjoyed young.
The Dr. L Riesling Dry embodies the elegant and vibrant style of the Riesling grape cultivated in the slate-soil vineyards of the Mosel Valley.
Riesling is a highly aromatic and fruity grape variety that has been revered throughout history for its vibrant personality, pure fruit flavors, astonishing diversity of styles, versatility with food, and its ability to age for decades.
Produced to high-quality standards, the result of sustainable viticulture according to strict German environmental regulations and bottled in a lightweight bottle.
Dry but still delightfully fruity, this wine pairs very well with ceviche, sushi, poultry, and dishes with white cream sauce.

Weingut Dr. Loosen
When in 1988, Ernst F. Loosen took over the management of the family-owned business with over 200 years of history, he had already traveled the world and visited the most prestigious wine producers in search of the secret behind the greatest wines, with the aim of producing world-class wines himself. These journeys of discovery inspired his own philosophy that great wines are the perfect expression of the soil, climate, and grape variety.
It is in the heritage of his ancestors, in the old vineyards located in the Mosel Valley, that he found the material he needed to produce exceptional and complex wines, classified as “Grosse Lage” (equivalent to Grand Cru in Burgundy). Today, Weingut Dr. Loosen is the standard-bearer for a rediscovered German Riesling culture and a member of the VDP (Association of German Quality Wineries).
“Enjoying a great wine is a unique pleasure, both sensually and intellectually. The aromatic and textural sensations in a bottle of wine capture a whole cosmos, from the change of seasons to the distinctive terroir of a vineyard, the passion of the winemaker, and the distinctive stamp of the vintage. Wine is a historical record of the regional and cultural information collected in the grapes at a particular point in time, delivered directly to your glass. To achieve this marvel of humans working with nature, all the great winemakers I have met started with a clear vision of what their wines should express before the first grape is picked. For them, individual terroir triumphs over technology. And quality always comes before quantity. Great wines grow from great passion and dedication, and from clear convictions that are realized without compromise.
(…) That ability to transmit a visceral connection to a people, place, and time is what sets wine apart from any other beverage.” – Ernst Loosen
