Carl Loewen, Riesling Thornicher Ritsch Grosses Gewachs, 2023
Carl Loewen, Riesling Thornicher Ritsch Grosses Gewachs, 2023 is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Carl Loewen's Thörnicher Ritsch is one of the steepest and least-planted sites in the Mosel — a slate-and-quartzite vineyard that the estate has been reclaiming and farming with extraordinary care. As a Grosses Gewächs, this is Christopher Loewen's driest and most serious Riesling — fully fermented to bone dry, expressing the site's intense mineral character without any sweetness to soften the edge. The 2023 vintage brought good ripeness and clean acidity to the Mosel, and Ritsch GG wears it beautifully. This is a wine for people who want German Riesling at its most serious and terroir-specific.

WINE GUIDES
German Wines
Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
