Dr. Loosen Riesling Auslese Wehlener Sonnenuhr 2003 37.5cl

Description

The Dr. Loosen Riesling Auslese Wehlener Sonnenuhr 2003, now well-aged, showcases beautifully developed characteristics that add depth and complexity to the wine. With over two decades of maturation, it reveals rich notes of caramel, dried apricots, and baked apple, alongside a distinctive touch of kerosene that’s typical of aged Rieslings. The sweetness, while still present, has softened, perfectly balanced by the wine’s bright, lively acidity, ensuring it never feels cloying. Layers of dried fruit, honey, and a gentle minerality from the vineyard’s slate soil round out the palate, culminating in a long, harmonious finish that speaks to the wine’s exceptional balance and evolution.

Mosel

Mosel, one of Germany's most renowned wine regions, is celebrated for its world-class Riesling wines. Located along the winding Mosel River, it benefits from a cool climate and steep, slate-rich vineyards that capture optimal sunlight. These conditions are ideal for producing Riesling, which is known for its vibrant acidity, minerality, and expressive fruit flavours, often featuring notes of green apple, peach, and citrus. Mosel Rieslings range from bone-dry to lusciously sweet, showcasing remarkable complexity and ageing potential. The area also produces excellent Elbling and Pinot Blanc. With its picturesque landscapes, historic vineyards, and dedication to quality, Mosel offers a truly exceptional wine experience for enthusiasts seeking some of the finest Rieslings in the world.
