Loosen Bros. Dr. Lo Alcohol-Removed Riesling
Dr. Lo is a superior-quality, non-alcoholic Riesling that captures the bright, slate-driven character of Germany’s Mosel Valley. Crafted by the same team of brothers behind the top-selling Dr. L Riesling, it is traditionally vinified before undergoing a gentle alcohol removal process to preserve its crisp acidity, vibrant citrus and stone fruit, and natural balance. Dr. Lo delivers an authentic, terroir-driven wine experience for guests seeking a sophisticated alcohol-free alternative. ABOUT THE ALCOHOL-REMOVAL PROCESS To craft a superior-quality alcohol-removed wine, we start with high quality Mosel valley fruit and ferment it the same way we do our regular wines. The wine then undergoes a state-of-the art alcohol removal process called vacuum distillation, which removes the alcohol while preserving the vital aromas and flavor compounds in the wine. Because it’s Riesling from the Mosel. The finished wine is already “Lo” in alcohol, so there’s hardly any to remove! The result is a perfect balance of fruitiness and crisp acidity, with a brisk and lively finish. ABOUT LOOSEN BROS. Loosen Bros. (“Gebrüder Loosen” in German), is Ernst Loosen, of the renowned Dr. Loosen estate, and his younger brother, Thomas. Together, the brothers work with small growers throughout the Mosel region to source fruit for the wines, which are vinified by the same highly skilled cellar team that produces the Dr. Loosen estate wines. Very strict quality standards require that the growers improve their viticulture in order to sustainably grow the healthy, perfectly ripe fruit that Ernst and Thomas want for these wines.
