"Green fruit opens the aromatic curtain on the olfactory stage, where delicate citrusy notes and a hint of spice also put in an appearance. This is the most intense of Ernie Loosen’s Grosse Gewächse, grapefruit and melon the main fruit contenders on the palate, but they are well supported by fine nuances of nut kernel and an indefinable but delightful spicy notion. The texture is creamy and well balanced by a refreshing lemony acidity." - Jancis Robinson
"The Grosses Gewächs Reserve wines are selectively harvested from our finest parcels of very old, ungrafted vines. They are naturally fermented in the same way as the GGs but stay for 24 months on the full lees in traditional Fuder casks. They are then held in bottle for a further 24 months before release. This extended maturation brings an extra dimension of finesse and balance to our wines.
Blazing red and insanely steep, Ürziger Würzgarten (the Spice Garden of Ürzig) fills a picturesque amphitheatre formed by a dramatic bend in the Mosel river. Although it is directly adjacent to the vineyards of Erden, this site produces a completely different kind of wine, with exotic, spicy aromas and a mesmerising earthiness. No other vineyard on the Mosel produces wines so bursting with tropical fruit flavours." - Cellarhand
