Ripe white peach, pear and green apple meet lime zest, white flowers and crushed slate, with a cool mineral edge keeping the fruit firmly in focus. The steep Försterlay slope gives the wine both intensity and freshness, while the 2024 vintage brings a particularly lively, precise feel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe palate is fuller and more structured than Dr Loosen’s regional Rieslings, but never heavy. Citrus and stone fruit are wrapped around bright acidity, fine lees texture and a long, salty mineral finish.

Slopes reach around 60%, and the vineyard runs close to the river, giving the vines excellent exposure and a long growing season. It is Dr Loosen’s second-smallest Grosse Lage holding, and the combination of mature vines, steep terrain and weathered slate produces Rieslings known for clear structure, mineral precision and freshness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56320099156353,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/2024LosnicherForsterlayGrossesGewachsRiesling_DrLoosen.png?v=1790422033","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2024-losnicher-forsterlay-grosses-gewachs-riesling-dr-loosen","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
