After six consecutive hot and very dry years, 2021 proved to be a stark contrast to this trend because it was considerably cooler and moister. This contrast led to challenges in the vineyard that were much different to the previous years. We have been doing this so long that usually weeks before the harvest we have a pretty good idea what sort of potential the vintage will have. This time we were denied that glimpse into the future as we had to wait a long time before we had an idea how the vintage would turn out. A lot of work hard was done in the vineyards, but it was all worth it. 2021 should be a great vintage if you love the characteristic Mosel Riesling acidity. This Dr. Loosen L Dry Riesling shows our continued commitment to produce high quality wines at many price levels as well as the increasing ability that we have on the Mosel to produce dry wines due to more favourable climatic conditions and our willingness to use modern and historical winemaking ideas
