The red volcanic and slate soils of the Ürziger Würzgarten (pronounced ERTS-iger VERTS-garten) vineyard make it unique on the Mosel. It is a steep site that yields wines with an exotic, spicy aroma and a mesmerising earthiness. There is no other vineyard in the Mosel valley that produces wines so bursting with tropical fruit flavours. The Dr. Loosen estate’s oldest vines (up to 120 years old) are found here. Winemaker Ernst Loosen is also one of Germany's most respected wine personalities.
