Named after the first dated image of Volratz Tower, 1573 Riesling is made from the nearby Rheingau vineyards, many owned by staff working at Schloss Vollrads. It is a very refreshing and well-balanced wine showing terrific fruit definition and quartz-like acidity.

The wine-growing region Nahe is situated along the River Nahe in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The region has around 4.000 ha of vineyards: white wine grapes dominate with 75% with the Riesling as the most common. A characteristic of the Nahe region os the soil diversity due to volcanic origins. Although the region was populated already in Roman times, the Nahe region was defined only in 1971 in the German wine law. Paradiesgarten is a special small appellation in the Nahe Valley near the village of Meddersheim, translated the word means "Garden of Eden/Paradise" due to the beautiful countryside

The current vintage of Dr. L Riesling evokes a walk through an orchard in the late summer: luscious pear, peach and apple aromas retain the crisp sweet tart quality of ripening fruit just before harvest. Highly recommended

How can something that is so light in alcohol have such incredible palate weight and texture? It's an art form and Ernst Loosen is a master. The Kabinett style means a decent lick of residual sugar, but the steely, crunchy acid means you'll hardly notice it. Simply stunning.
