Weingut Carl Loewen Riesling Ritsch G.G. 2019, from Germany’s Mosel, is a 100% Riesling from the steep Thörnicher Ritsch vineyard, one of Germany’s steepest slopes. The bouquet unveils vibrant citrus, green apple, and floral aromas, with intense minerality and wet slate notes. The palate is medium-bodied, bone-dry with crisp acidity, delivering flavors of lime, peach, and spice, with a powerful, lingering finish. Fermented spontaneously and aged in stainless steel and neutral oak, it reflects Carl Loewen’s terroir-driven philosophy. The 2019 vintage, known for its intensity, produced a wine of remarkable complexity, ideal for pairing with seafood, light salads, or creamy cheeses. Its concentrated fruit and mineral structure make it a collector’s gem, showcasing Ritsch’s unique slate terroir. With excellent aging potential, this Grosses Gewächs offers enthusiasts a sophisticated expression of Mosel’s steep-slope viticulture and Carl Loewen’s artisanal precision.
