Dr. L Riesling Grey Slate Private Reserve 2019

Produced by world-renowned winemaker, Ernst Loosen, Dr. L Riesling “Gray Slate” is clean and crisp with vibrant stone fruit and citrus flavors. It is crafted in the off-dry “feinherb” style, making it a versatile partner for many foods, from vegetarian dishes to veal in a cream sauce.

The Mosel’s stony soil and numerous rocky outcroppings warm the vineyards by reflecting sunlight and holding the heat of the day. This creates very warm microclimates in the best sites and helps to ensure excellent ripeness. The thin topsoil forces the vines to dig deep through the cliff for water and nutrients, producing vibrant wines that capture the forceful minerality of the soil.
