Dr Loosen Riesling Beerenauslese, Mosel 18.7cl Quarter Bottle

Description

Dr Loosen Riesling Beerenauslese quarter bottles make excellent stocking fillers or perhaps suffice if only one or two people want to drink a dessert wine and don’t want to open a full or half bottle. It is also an excellent opportunity to try a Beerenauslese at an affordable price.

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 allowed the wine to develop its full potential with minimal handling and technological meddling.
