Wine Review – 2008 Dr. Loosen Riesling
From: Germany
Price: $10.99
Don’t turn around, oh oh. Der Kommissar’s in town, oh oh! It’s wasn’t the Commissioner that recently visited us, but it sure was a damn fine German doctor that made a house call to WineLife365.
“Dr. L”, as it’s known in wine circles, is a terrific “purist” style Riesling from Mosel, Germany. What I mean by “purist” is that this wine tasted like real crushed fruit, free of “special” additives that are suppose to enhance a wine’s natural flavors.
The 2008 Dr. Loosen Riesling is packed with apples and pears. However, all of this fruit does make this wine a tad sweet. Not too sweet though, but enough for me not to award it a 4 star WineLife365 rating.
I give the good doctor 3 Stars out of 4. If you dine on swine, this white wine is a perfect accompaniment.
Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?
