"Light as a feather yet piercing and powerful, this zippy spätlese juxtaposes luminous gooseberry and white-peach flavors against streaks of lime and cut stone. Medium sweet in style, it's an intensely ripe yet breathless, cutting wine that finishes long and pure. It is delicious already but should improve through 2035 and hold further. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Crushed stone and bramble notes are brightened by hints of hibiscus nectar, lime and grapefruit in this crystalline medium-sweet Riesling. Citrus acidity on the midpalate is bracing yet balanced, coated by a lacy veil of sugar that lingers sweetly on the finish. This is a vibrant wine to enjoy now-2030. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Exotische Früchte, mineralwürzig begleitet. Ein Hauch von Auslese dabei, aber auch eine knackige Säure, die Frucht und Süße dominiert. Viel Saft und Mineralität in der Gaumenmitte, pralle Frische, im Abgang aufs Mineralische reduziert - spannender Wein."

"Zitrusnoten sorgen für einen frischen Auftakt in der Nase, am Gaumen supersaftig und frisch dank Gärkohlensäure und hedonistischer Frucht, Abrieb von Amalfizitronen und einer tänzelnden Säure. Leichtfüßig und präzise. Eine archetypische Spätlese."

"Bursting of sweet yellow cherries, tangerines and peaches, this fragrant, finely filigreed spätlese screams classic Mosel. Searing lemon-lime acidity counters lush, sunny fruit flavors, finishing with a crystalline haze of honey and nectar. It's stunning now, but has plenty of stuffing to carry through 2025 with aplomb."

"Schwefelwürzige Kontur lässt der Frucht, dem ganzen Wein momentan nur wenig Raum. Nennen wir Düfte, nennen wir Gewürze und schreiten sogleich zur Probe: Saftig, fruchtbetont und von straffer Säure durchzogen."

"Clouds of powdery mineral and pollen blanket dense, ripe peach and apricot in this sprightly, feather-light Riesling. Semidry in style, it bristles with tart tangerine acidity. The finish is long and perfumed in honeysuckle. Drink now through 2025."

"An intense experience on the nose and palate, this semisweet Riesling opens with a gorgeous bouquet of yellow flowers, stone fruit and musk against a backdrop of chalk and minerals. It's richly fruity, with a sharp, honed acidity that's shocking and penetrating. Finishes long, with an elegant honeyed touch."

"Intensely aromatic with notes of orange blossom, honey and tangerines, this juicy, fruity Riesling is delicate in body with a refreshingly crisp acidity. Whiffs of lanolin and dried herbs add complexity and finesse."

"The wines from Erden are almost always stars in the Loosen stable, and this 2009 spätlese is no exception. It's sweet and lush, with ripe cherry-berry notes balanced by fresh limes and a chaser of crushed stone. Long and balanced, suitable for contemplative sipping or partnering slightly spicy or sweet dishes."

"This wine is a shining example of the glorious minerality that singles out Mosel Riesling. The nose shows really appealing pear and gardenia scents overlaying wet stone notes. The mouthwatering acidity wakes up your palate and is in perfect balance with the substantial residual sugar. Drink now (with sushi) or hold five or more years for even more complexity."

"Loosen's 2006 Erdener Treppchen spätlese delivers everything you'd want from a Mosel Riesling. It's light and low in alcohol, yet rich and dense in extract. Sweet, yet tart, with a great sense of balance. And the flavors of apple and pear, citrus and slate are pure and well defined. Drink it now and over the next 15 years."

"Another success from Loosen, the 2005 Erdener Treppchen Spätlese artfully combines honey, melon and citrus flavors with aromas of wet slate. It's a bit chunky, but should slim down in a few years. It finishes well, with a long, tactile, minerally feel."

"(2006) Again there is spice here, but touches of youthful pear drop and ferment banana notes. Such lovely fruit on the palate, with obvious potential and lovely acidity that is very pure and fine. This has concentration and delicacy, but will be better in a year or two."
