One of the best values on the liquor store shelf. This lovely, floral, light-bodied German Riesling still packs lots of flavour. Serve chilled as an aperitif or companion to seafood.

Riesling food pairings: pork tenderloin, turkey breast, spicy pasta dishes, shrimp tempura.

Reviews and Ratings

Perry rated this wine as 91/100
Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Wonderful and great value. I'm a fan year after year of this great value Mosel valley Riesling. This valley was first cultivated by the Romans and Dr Loosen is doing a great job with the fruit and vinification in this vintage. Off dry with Mosel typicity. Rich supple fruit, well balanced high acidity and declared alcohol at 8.5% ABV. Paired excellently with pad Thai, Asian stir fry and sushi. Tasted Jan 2017. Rated 90/100.
Colin McKone - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Pale straw in colour with aromas of honeysuckle, pink grapefruit, apple and a hint of peach with the aromas following through on the palate. This medium bodied, off-dry and well balanced with high mouthwatering acidity. This is an excellent value wine and a must buy for any lover of German Riesling. This will pair well with Asian dishes and can be enjoyed on its own. Tasted on July 23, 2017,
