Dr. Loosen Riesling Blue Slate Kabinett 2025

$2499

Kabinett done right: lightly sweet, low in alcohol and built around a backbone of slate-driven acidity that makes it feel almost weightless. Dr. Loosen's Ernie Loosen is one of the Mosel's most influential figures, championing old ungrafted vines and unhurried, hands-off winemaking. 'Blue Slate' refers to the blue Devonian slate soils of the Mosel that give this Riesling its cool, mineral edge. Fermented with native yeast and left with gentle residual sugar, it clocks in around 8% alcohol — an effortless, deliciously drinkable introduction to the estate. Serve it cold as an aperitif or with anything spicy.
