ABOUT THIS WINE
The Dr. Loosen Erdener Treppchen Riesling GG Alte Reben 2022 is a dry white wine from the Mosel region of Germany. The 'Alte Reben' designation indicates that the grapes are sourced from very old vines in the Erdener Treppchen vineyard, which has a history of never being replanted since before World War I. This contributes to the wine's complexity and depth. Weingut Dr. Loosen is a well-established producer in the Mosel, recognized for its high-quality Rieslings. The wine's 'Grosses Gewächs' (GG) classification signifies it as a top-tier dry wine from a specific vineyard site. The 2022 vintage is characterized by its developed, extract-rich profile.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Dr. Loosen Erdener Treppchen Riesling GG Alte Reben is produced from 100% Riesling grapes. The winemaking process involves fermentation down to dry levels. Aging is typically conducted in stainless steel or neutral vessels to maintain the purity of the fruit and the wine's mineral characteristics. The grapes are sourced from old vines in the Erdener Treppchen vineyard, which benefits from wind that allows for long ripening periods.
