The breathtakingly steep, red‑soiled vineyard of Ürziger Würzgarten (Würzgarten translates to spice garden) produces wines of a completely unique nature in the Mosel River valley. The wines show the typically juicy and exotic fruit of the this Grosse Lage (Grand Cru) vineyard, with a rich mouth feel, a spicy acid tingle and lingering finish. Kabinett is the lightest, most delicate style of Riesling in Germany, made from grapes harvested when just ripe.

This is a lovely wine, offering up the cooler aromatics of the vintage in its mix of pear, gooseberry, cress, salty slate minerality, wild yeasts and a topnote of lilacs. On the palate the wine is bright, medium-full, and filigreed, with good intensity of flavor, bouncy acids, fine focus and cut and a long, complex, and very well-balanced finish. Rated 91+. - John Gilman, View From The Cellar, September-October, 2022

Produce of predominantly Graacher, Wehlener and Bernkastel Riesling fruit blended to achieve a kind of quintessential middle-Mosel wine; delicate, fragrant, ripe Riesling aromas that suggest citrus flower, vanilla; ripe and just round at the edges, brilliantly balanced with bright acidity that charges the palate and keeps everything fresh and moving forward.

Dr. L comes exclusively from traditional Mosel vineyards, read steep slopes and slate soils, and serves well as an excellent introduction to the elegant and racy style that is classic Mosel Riesling. Vivid, fresh aromas suggest clean slate and stone fruits like peach and apricot; bright and fresh on the tongue with lively interplay between intensity of delicate ripe fruit and a bright fresh acidity that keeps things bouncing along crisp and clean, juicy and ultra-refreshing to the finish. Brilliant value, too!
