Description
In a nutshell:
Rich, complex, and intensely sweet, this Mosel speciality comes in a small 18.75cl bottle and delivers concentrated flavour and depth in a neat, finely balanced dessert wine.
The lowdown:
Beerenauslese is one of those classic German wine terms - it refers to dessert wines made from overripe, hand-selected grapes, naturally sweet but lifted by bright acidity. This one nails it: juicy dried apricot richness meets a citric, mineral streak that keeps everything fresh and focused. The finish is long, clean, and satisfyingly precise. This, coming in a small 18.75cl bottle, is proof that good things really do come in small packages.
The Producer:
Dr Loosen is one of the big names in German wine - and for good reason. Based in the Mosel Valley, this family-run estate has been making Riesling for over 200 years, and under Ernst Loosen's watch since the late 80s, things have only got better. The steep, slate-covered slopes of their vineyards produce seriously classy fruit, and the wines are full of that trademark Mosel elegance and mineral bite. Tradition's still a big part of what they do, but there's plenty of forward thinking too - and the focus on quality and sustainability runs right through the range.
When to drink:
Brilliant with salty blue cheeses like Roquefort or a glossy tarte tatin - the rich sweetness and bright acidity are spot on, and it's one that will keep for many a year as well.
