Dr Loosen Urziger Wurzgarten Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel 2001

HED99945 75cl 7.5%
Dr. Loosen, a renowned estate in Germany`s Mosel Valley, has been in the same family for over 200 years. In 1988, Ernst Loosen assumed ownership and focused on producing world-class Rieslings.

The 2001 Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Alte Reben Grosses Gewächs is a dry, medium-bodied wine from the esteemed "spice garden" vineyard in Ürzig. This vineyard`s unique red sandstone and slate soils impart a distinctive minerality to the wine. Crafted from old vines, some exceeding a century in age, the wine showcases concentrated flavours and complexity. The 2001 vintage offers aromas of chamomile, leading to a rich and broad palate. This wine exemplifies the depth and longevity characteristic of Dr. Loosen`s Grosses Gewächs Rieslings.

Mosel, Germany
Here we have a lovely layering of fresh, almost tart strawberry-rhubarb character with strawberry jam and honey. Lovely accents of apple pit and citrus help to leaven the sweetness. On the palate, it turns almost syrupy, yet sheer density and slate character assist in restraining that impression. Potential 2 stars.
