[SOLD-OUT] Dr Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett 2021

 

"Bright, with a leafy and zesty note bringing beautiful complexity on the nose. A generous palate with a touch of sweetness which brings out the floral and earthy elements while keeping the brightness of the acidity. A beautiful example of Mosel Riesling Kabinett" - Wine House

 

"Dr Loosen Bernkasteler Lay (pronounced LIE; an old dialect word for ‘slate’) Riesling Kabinett is grown around the Dr. Loosen estate house, directly along the Mosel, just outside the village of Bernkastel. As the name indicates, the soil is predominantly blue slate, but it is heavier and deeper than the soil in the neighbouring villages of Wehlen or Graach. This site has a gentler slope than the estate’s other vineyards. It produces richly textured, assertive wines. 2020 Dr Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett comes from vines with an average age of 60 years old, grown on blue Devonian slate. It’s farmed sustainably, according to strict German environmental regulations. Cool fermentation in a combination of stainless steel tanks and Fuder barrels, half fermented with natural yeasts, half with cultured yeasts.' - Cellarhand
