The Loosen family has grown Riesling and produced wine in the Mosel valley for over 200 years. The current owner, Ernst "Erni" Loosen, assumed ownership in 1988, embarking on a quest to greatly improve the quality and international reputation of the estate, the Mosel region, and Riesling in general. Today, Erni is one of the most iconic and influential winemakers globally.
The Mittelmosel region is well-known for its exceptional vineyards, particularly the "Grosse Lage" vineyards, which produce some of the finest Rieslings in the world. Fortunately, the Loosen estate owns vineyards in some of these locations. The vineyards are so incredibly steep and treacherous, it's truly impressive how the grapes are even harvested from such a demanding terrain.

2022 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr GG Alte Reben
Usually $105 - Special Offer $99
“This needs a moment’s aeration for the fine stone fruit aromas to emerge. Stunning concentration and succulence, but also impeccable balance this is a great Mosel GG that will give so much pleasure in the years to come. In spite of everything there is a lovely delicacy at the finish. Drinkable from release, but best from 2024.”
