Urziger Wurzgarten -Lustgarten

2013 Mosel Riesling

The Benedict Loosen Erben Urziger Wurzgarten Lustgarten from the Mosel region is a stunning representation of Riesling, showcasing the variety's characteristic elegance and vibrancy. This wine features a medium body that captivates the palate, supported by a high acidity that brings brightness and liveliness to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering delightful notes of ripe stone fruits and zesty citrus, while the wine remains bone dry, allowing for a refreshing finish that invites another taste. This 2013 vintage is a testament to the unique terroir of the Mosel, where the steep slate vineyards impart a distinct minerality, adding depth and complexity to the overall experience, making it an exceptional choice for any occasion.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
