"The 2023 Riesling Erdener Treppchen Alte Reben Grosses Gewächs tingles with tangerine peel notes and an ethereal lift. The palate is rounder, juicier and riper than expected yet absolutely stream-lined. There is always a touch of reduction bordered by mouthwatering pithiness. This is immensely juicy and bold. (Dry)" -Anne Krebiehl

"From the ferrous red slate soils of this very steep vineyard next to the Prälat, the 2023 Erdener Treppchen GG Alte Reben opens clear, deep, fresh and intense yet also refined on the elegant nose that intermingles delicate slate and intense saline notes with concentrated and spicy Riesling aromas without becoming too fruity. Mouth-filling, saline and highly refined on the palate, this is an elegant but tight and very complex, intense, long und textural Treppchen with a sustainable and layered finish that exhibits mineral and herbal flavors as well as great and complex intensity that is sourced from the terroir and transported by the deep roots of the ancient vines. The 2023 Treppchen is a highlight of the vintage in Loosen's portfolio and most probably among all the Grosses Gewächs Rieslings from the Middle Mosel. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in December 2024." -Stephan Reinhardt

"This wine offers a vibrant mix of yellow apple and lime, with a creamy undertone of custard that adds richness. The balance between fresh fruit and subtle oak influence gives it both energy and depth. It's smooth yet refreshing, with a touch of minerality on the finish. Well-structured and inviting." -Aleks Zecevic
