Winemaker Notes

The Spätlese ("late-picked") designation means the grapes get a week or two of extra hang time for higher ripeness and deeper flavors than Kabinett. This Spätlese, from a truly "grand cru" vineyard in the village of Ürzig, has a juicy mouthful of exotic fruits and a tongue-tingling spiciness.

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    Piercing scents of rose and peony, with peach, lime and lanolin flavors adding depth and dimension. Light-weight and delicate, with a long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2028. 600 cases imported.
  • 91
    The Loosen 2007 Urziger Wurzgarten Riesling Spatlese offers scents and juicy palate profusion of strawberry and kiwi; extreme delicacy accompanied by subtle creaminess; and wet stone and smoky mineral adjuncts to its lip-smacking and refreshing finishing. This is by no means as dynamic, complex, or rich as the best Wurzgarten Spatlese (at this address or elsewhere) can be, but it delivers the classic character of the site and virtues of its genre in irresistible fashion, and will no doubt continue to do so for 15 or more years.

Dr. Loosen, Germany
Dr. Loosen Winery Video

The Dr. Loosen Estate has been in the same family for over 200 years. With ungrafted vines averaging 50 years old, some of the best vineyard sites in Germany (four rated grand cru and two premier cru by both the 1868 German classification and the more current Wine Atlas of Germany), Ernst Loosen has the raw materials for stunningly intense, world-class wines. With crop yields almost half of what is permitted by law, only moderate use of organic fertilizers, and old-fashioned cellar practices, Loosen strives to create wines that unmistakably say, "Riesling, Mosel, and Dr. Loosen." In his own words, "The great winemakers I have met invariably possess a clear concept in their mind of what their wine should be. It's a vision that places terroir over technology, and grape quality over quantity. This is the level of winemaking we pursue at Dr. Loosen. Our goal is to produce wines that are luscious, complex, and true to their roots."
