Dr. Loosen Riesling Eiswein 2016
SKU

Ernie Loosen is unusual in that he allows botrytis to develop for 15-20% of the grapes used for his ice wine. That creates some honeyed richness and orange peel aromas and, in his view, gives the wine greater consistency in its ageing potential. Tropical, aromatic, and sweet, this is an incredibly balanced wine, the sugar and acid in perfect harmony. At 7%, the alcohol is gently caressing. Young, fresh, and vibrant now, with decades of life ahead.
