Pale, delicate greenish white gold. Already in the nose, it signals progressing, inappropriate ripeness in the form of a beginning firn, currently only held in check by the primary and secondary aromas. In addition, floral scents and peach notes are perceptible, which do not really want to match the typical Ürziger Rieslings known in the wine world. On the tongue, the wine, misunderstood not only by Ernst Loosen but also by his VDP colleagues as a Großes Gewächs, looks like the litre bottleing of a large winery, which is to be placed on unsuspecting wine drinkers by a discounter. Here, the VDP's internal quality control has bitterly failed. Sweet and sour and without contours, Loosen has succeeded in vinifying his banal drink completely bypassing its origin. For a dry Riesling unacceptably sweet taste. It lacks any depth. Medium length and without any noteworthy sustainability. Does not develop to its advantage with air. Low potential for maturation.
