Wehlener Sonnenuhr

Our vineyards

Wehlener Sonnenuhr

In this very steep vineyard, one of the most elegant and delicately aromatic white wines in the world is grown. The stony, shallow blue slate soils give the wine a delicate, fresh acidity and a unique elegance. Wines from the Wehlener Sonnenuhr are the most charming of our estate in their youth, captivating with aromas of white peach and green apple.

In Wehlen, there is virtually no topsoil; the vineyards consist almost entirely of broken and weathered fragments of pure blue Mosel slate. This purity is reflected in the wines from this site.

Dr. Loosen Estate

Pioneer of the rediscovered German Riesling culture

In family ownership for over 200 years, the estate has been led by Ernst F. Loosen since 1988. In his view, great wines are the perfect expression of soil, climate, and grape variety.

With the heritage of his ancestors – own-rooted, old vines in historic Grosse Lagen of the Central Mosel – he found exactly the material needed to craft distinctive, complex wines of world-class caliber. Today, Dr. Loosen is internationally recognized as the flagship of a rediscovered German Riesling culture.

Since 1993, the winery has been a member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter).

OUR VINEYARDS

In the 1868 vineyard map of the Trier administrative district, created as a basis for tax assessment for Mosel estates, nine of our vineyards were designated as Grosse Lagen.

This classification is comparable to the Grand Cru system of Burgundy and was updated in 1995 by Stuart Pigott and Hugh Johnson in their German Wine Atlas. Today, we deliberately draw on this historically proven, cultural classification.

Since 1988, we have bottled exclusively Rieslings from these classified Grosse Lagen as single-vineyard wines, while all other wines are released by us as Gutsriesling.
