WINE DESCRIPTION

Dr. Loosen Riesling Red Slate Dry is a premium wine produced by the renowned Dr. Loosen winery. This wine comes from the Mosel region of Germany, which is known for its steep, slate vineyards that produce some of the world's finest Rieslings. The Red Slate vineyard, in particular, is known for its red slate soil, which imparts a unique minerality to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and cool fermentation to preserve the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. The resulting wine is a dry Riesling with a crisp acidity, vibrant fruit flavors, and a distinct minerality that makes it a perfect pairing for seafood, spicy dishes, and Asian cuisine.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Dr. Loosen Riesling Red Slate Dry is a delicious and refreshing German white wine.The aromas are of ripe apricot and peach, with a hint of citrus and mineral. On the palate, the wine is crisp and dry, with a light body and a long, mineral-driven finish. The acidity is balanced and the flavors linger long after the sip. This is a great food pairing wine, as it can easily stand up to a variety of dishes. Enjoy with charcuterie, grilled vegetables, or lighter fare.
