Wine review: Dr.L. Riesling 2022

Ottawa, ON

August 2024

Matt’s review: From the northerly Mosel wine region, where some of the world’s finest Riesling are produced, Loosen Bros’ 2022 Dr. L. Riesling is an expressive, elegant, and beautifully balanced off-dry Riesling that over delivers on value. The nose shows fragrant floral blossoms, jasmine and honeysuckle, with orchard fruit, wildflower honey, and wet stone minerality. The aromas repeat on the palate with impressive structure and texture in this sub $20 wine. Medium bodied with a creamy yet mouthwatering texture, this Riesling is off-dry but the great acidity balances it beautifully resulting in a very elegant, clean, and refreshing expression of Mosel Riesling. Enjoy over the next few years served chilled alongside Szechwan chicken or your favourite spicy Asian fusion cuisine. Tasted August 2024. 91 points. Matt Steeves – http://www.quercusvino.ca
