✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the legendary, precipitous blue slate slopes of the Wehlener Sonnenuhr (Sundial of Wehlen) vineyard, this rare Eiswein from Dr. Loosen represents the pinnacle of Mosel winemaking artistry. The vineyard itself is named after the historic sundial erected in 1842 by Jodocus Pruem to guide the daily rhythms of the vineyard workers. To produce this liquid gold, 100% Riesling grapes are left on the vine into the freezing depths of winter, harvested by hand in the pre-dawn hours at temperatures of -7 degrees Celsius or lower. Pressing the grapes while still frozen coaxes out a highly concentrated, luscious nectar, leaving the water behind as ice. This extreme process yields a wine of profound sweetness balanced by a vibrant, electric acidity, showcasing intense notes of candied citrus, honeyed stone fruits, and a distinct slate minerality.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Den historiske vingård Dr. Loosen har været i Loosen-familiens eje i over 200 år og ligger idyllisk på de dramatiske, skiferklædte skråninger i Bernkastel-Kues i Mittelmosel. Da Ernst Loosen overtog ansvaret i 1988, indledte han en markant revitalisering af vinhuset med et kompromisløst fokus på lave høstudbytter, omhyggelig pleje i vinmarkerne og minimal intervention i kælderen. Ejendommen råder over usædvanligt gamle, uhegnede Riesling-stokke på legendariske Grosse Lage-marker som Erdener Prälat, Wehlener Sonnenuhr og Bernkasteler Lay. Dr. Loosen nyder verdensomspændende anerkendelse for sine rene, udtryksfulde og lagringsværdige Riesling-vine, der spænder fra spændstige, tørre aftapninger til overdådigt komplekse og mineralske Prädikat- og dessertvine.
