2021 Villa Wolf Riesling Fruity

The Riesling from Villa Wolf is harvested at the end of September and immediately destemmed in the vinification room, after which it is gently pressed with the greatest care. After this, the juice stays for more than two weeks in a stainless steel tank at a controlled temperature of 18°C to undergo alcoholic fermentation. After this, the wine is allowed to mature on its fine lees without allowing the malolactic fermentation to take place, in order to preserve the freshness in this wine. After a few months, the assembly follows and the wine is bottled after a light filtering.

The riesling fruity with its light straw yellow color gives aromas of passion fruit and juicy stone fruit in the nose. This Riesling shows the aromas of lemon, yellow stone fruit and green apple in the aftertaste. The fresh acidity is slightly masked by the little residual sweetness, after which it ends in a slightly mineral aftertaste. Truly a fruity, fresh, not too dry riesling!

Ernst Loosen, the owner of the famous Dr. Loosen, took over the Villa Wolf winery in 1996 and improved the quality and reputation of the estate. Patrick Möllendorf and Sumi Gebauer worked together with Dr. Loosen. As a team, they now manage the entire winemaking process at Villa Wolf, from vine to cellar. They share Ernst Loosen's philosophy that great wines are made on the vine.
