Dr Loosen Sparkling Riesling Alcohol Free NV

Tropical fruits and lime zest on the nose. On the palate, fruity yet dry, hints of spice with crisp acidity. A classic riesling with some residual sweetness, in a blind tasting you would struggle to identify that this is alcohol free.

ABV: 0%  Bottle Size: 75cl  Sustainable Farming

Additional Information: The Dr. Loosen estate has been in the family for over 200 years and possesses some of Germany's most respected and spectacular vineyards containing  un-grafted vines up to 140 years old on spectacularly steep, south facing slopes in the Mosel valley. Since taking over, Erni Loosen has focused on the selection of only healthy grapes, spontaneous fermentation, extended maturation of the wines in large wooden casks and an emphasis on letting his dry wines rest the full lees.  

The Dr. Loosen estate believe that just because you are drinking something alcohol-free that does not mean you should have to compromise on quality. They therefore selected a high-quality vintage Riesling wine with a modest alcohol level and the right balance of fruitiness and acidity. The base wine then went though an alcohol removal process, and then spritz added. 45g/l of residual sweetness but  balanced by the grape’s natural acidity.
