Dr Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling GG, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer

Dr Loosen is one of Germany’s leading producers, with a family history on the Mosel dating back over 200 years. The Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard is among the most celebrated in the region, known for its steep, slate slopes that capture sunlight and create Rieslings of remarkable precision and longevity. This Grosses Gewächs is sourced from the estate’s oldest, ungrafted vines, many over a century old. Fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts, and the wine matures in large, traditional oak casks, a method that preserves freshness while adding depth and texture. Each vintage shows the vineyard’s signature character: aromas of white peach, citrus, and slate, with a palate that balances concentrated fruit with a fine line of acidity and a lingering mineral finish. This is a wine built for cellaring, steadily developing layers of complexity over decades while remaining a benchmark for dry Mosel Riesling.
