Dr Loosen in the Mosel
2 June 2011
A Boot-full of Wine
Tasting notes from Italy (and beyond!)
When I decided to visit Germany, the Mosel region was top of my list. And in terms of producers, Dr Loosen topped the Mosel list. I was familiar with Dr Loosen wines – readily available at varying quality levels in Australia – and of course, with Ernst Loosen himself.
Ernie Loosen has won more awards than you can poke a stick at, including being Decanter’s Man of the Year in 2005. Many of his vineyard sites contain very old Riesling vines (over 120 years old) on their own rootstocks (phylloxera cannot trouble the vines in the red/grey slate).
