Dr. Loosen Spatlese Riesling Urziger Wurzgarten 2011


Dr. Loosen Spatlese Riesling Urziger Wurzgarten 2011 (WS93, $35.95, SKU 515700) I have been waiting for the arrival of this wine and I finally found it two weeks ago on the shelves. This was a German Riesling made with the grapes that are picked at least seven days after the normal harvest. The sweetness code on the shelves is 3 (0 is very dry, 10 is very sweet). It had a good nose and lots of fruits. There was taste of tropical fruits. Because of its medium body, it complemented Chinese dishes of halibut cheeks and tiger prawns well. There is another version the Wehlener Sonnenuhr that has a sweetness code of 7 but I found that one too sweet for Chinese food. There is stock at 39th and Cambie, Alberni, Park Royal and Richmond Brighouse.
