Description
Loosen Bros. Dr. L Dry Riesling — Mosel, Germany 2024
Ernst Loosen is one of the Mosel’s most passionate and influential winemakers — a tireless ambassador for German Riesling who has spent decades proving that the grape can be both profound and approachable. Dr. L is his entry-level expression and his most widely sold wine, designed specifically to introduce drinkers to the delicate, racy style that defines Riesling grown in the ancient slate-soil vineyards of the Mosel valley. It is, in Ernst’s own words, his “ambassador” for the region — and it delivers that mission at a price that makes it an everyday staple.
The 2024 pours a pale, luminous straw. The nose is bright and inviting — fresh citrus, green apple, white peach, and the distinctive mineral lift of Mosel slate. On the palate, it’s refreshing and fruit-driven with a juicy mid-palate, lively acidity, and a crisp, clean, drying finish. Light, invigorating, and endlessly food-friendly — this is Riesling at its most honest and enjoyable.
“Ernst Loosen’s ambassador for the Mosel region and for the Riesling variety — the delicate and racy style characteristic of slate-soil Mosel vineyards, at an affordable price for every day enjoyment.” — Loosen Bros.
