(Dr. Loosen Riesling Spätlese Ürziger Würzgarten, Mosel) From one of the most distinctive sites in the Mosel valley, this is a benchmark for the region from one of its most storied producers. Nearly colorless in the glass, the wine smells of litchi, ripe pear, and honeysuckle. In the mouth, a wonderfully silky texture melds with bright mandarin-orange, pear, and honeysuckle flavors; a light sweetness; and a crackling mineral undertone that does, true to the vineyard name (which means “spice garden”), yield to a light spiciness. Fantastically balanced, this wine keeps on giving through a long finish. Effortless to drink. Hot Picks

Golden color typical Riesling flavors some honey and dried apricot. Medium to full bodied with perfectly balanced acidity and sweetness very good length

Very nice Mosel Riesling. Super elegant and refined. Wonderful aromas of apricot and green apples underlined by the typical minerality and smokyness of Mosel slate. This wine has body and structure and extraordinary persisitance despite the fact that it is a rather "quiet" and light-footed wine. I recommend to drink it within the next 2-3 years.

Pleasant but too thin to my palate. The balance here doesn't strike a chord in my emotional repertoire.

Spicy, exotic spritz. Gewurztraminer-like hint, lychee, ginger? Recommended with cheese. Tasted at estate
