Dr Loosen Red Slate Riesling Dry 2024 750ml - Germany

 Dr. Loosen Red Slate Riesling Dry 750ml - Germany

This wine is produced with fruit exclusively from estate vineyards with red slate soil in the villages of Ürzig, Erden, Lösnich and Kinheim. The vineyards are farmed specifically for producing dry wine. The wine is fermented with native yeasts in 3,000-liter, neutral oak casks. The extended lees contact allows the wine to develop a naturally harmonious balance and greater complexity.

Red Slate Soil The Mosel Valley’s Iron-rich red slate is less common than the more prolific blue slate found throughout Germany’s Middle Mosel. Red slate is found mostly in the villages of Erden, Ürzig and Kinheim.

Lots of herb and red-berry aromas with a very striking harmony of medium body, crisp acidity and a long finish with a lot more of the herbal-mineral character. 

Alc:12%
