[SOLD-OUT] Dr Loosen Urziger Wurzgarten Grosses Gewachs 2013

Ürzig produces wines of a completely unique nature, showcasing the typically exotic fruit flavors of the “spice garden,” with a rich texture, gentle acidity and lingering finish.

Grosses Gewächs (GG) means “great growth” and is the designation for an estate’s best dry wine from a Grosse Lage (grand cru) vineyard.

This “great growth” Riesling is from a parcel of extremely old vines (“alte Reben”) that lies directly behind the village and is still referred to by its historical name, Urglück (“original luck”).

“Stunningly clear, pure and spicy on the nose, where tropical fruit aromas are displayed but cool, slate flavors are kept and are not covered by buckets of fruits, is still pure and precise and very delicate and elegant on the nose. Delicate and juicy, balanced and piquant, in a very subtle way, this is filigreed structured and persistently salty wine with the delicacy and purity of a great dry Mosel Riesling"
