Product Highlights

Full Product Description

Weingut Dr. Loosen Dr. L Sparkling Riesling Sekt NV is a fresh and aromatic German sparkling wine from Mosel, made from 100% Riesling. Riesling’s natural acidity makes it ideal for sparkling wine, giving this Sekt a bright, crisp, and refreshing profile with expressive fruit and lively bubbles. Loosen Bros. describes Dr. L Sparkling Riesling as a deliciously aromatic and fruit-filled sparkling wine made from pure Riesling.

This wine is made using the Charmat method, where the second fermentation happens in a pressurized tank to keep the bubbles in the wine and preserve its clean, bright fruit character. This method produces a fresh and easy-drinking sparkling wine that is suitable for everyday enjoyment, brunch, dinner, celebrations, and sparkling cocktails.

The wine offers aromas and flavours of apple, citrus, peach, pear, honey, ginger, white flowers, lychee, and light spice. On the palate, it is bright, crisp, juicy, and balanced, with a touch of sweetness supported by refreshing Riesling acidity. Wine.com lists the wine as off-dry with a 91 Tasting Panel score, while Binny’s notes a 90 Decanter review with white flowers, lychee, ripe pear, nutmeg, apple, cardamom, sweet lemon curd, and a stony finish.

This is a great choice for customers looking for a fun, refreshing, and affordable alternative to Prosecco or Champagne. Serve it as an aperitif or pair it with seafood, sushi, sashimi, spicy Thai dishes, dim sum, salads, fresh cheese, brunch dishes, fruit desserts, and casual celebrations.
