J L WolfWinemakers: Ernst Loosen Region:Â Pfalz, Germany |
| Ernst Loosen, owner of world-class Dr Loosen estate on the Mosel, has taken on
another wine estate, this one in the Pfalz region. The estate is J L Wolf in the villiage of Wachenheim, As with his intense and powerful Mosel wines, Ernst aims to preserve the traditional character of the region and the grape variety (mostly Riesling), but with a new level of concentration and opulence. Typically wines from the Pfalz are weightier and drier, than Mosel wines and have style that is rounder and more earthy. The wines are clean and focussed with good body, full fruit flavours and a strong backbone. 2007 Villa Wolf Gewurztraminer (July 2009) 2007 Villa Wolf Pinot Gris (July 2009) 2007 Villa Wolf Wachenheimer Riesling |
