WINE DESCRIPTION

Dr. Loosen Riesling Spätlese Graacher Himmelreich is a premium wine produced by the renowned Dr. Loosen winery. The grapes are sourced from the Graacher Himmelreich vineyard, located in the Mosel region of Germany, which is known for its steep slopes and slate soils that impart a unique minerality to the wine. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts and aging in large oak barrels. The resulting wine is a classic Riesling Spätlese, with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, and flavors of ripe peach, apricot, and citrus. This wine is a perfect example of the high-quality and distinctive style of German Riesling.
