Dr. Loosen, Erdener Pralat Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Brut Zero and yet it is elegant(for 375 ml.) Golden yellow. Rich aromas of mango, candied quince and lemon oil mingle with spicy botrytis. Intense, deep flavors of rich pit fruits and glazed honey are nicely framed by the wine' elegant saline minerality. This massive auslese is certainly the finest in Loosen's line up this vintage, but will need time to reveal its potential. Joel B. Payne
