Loosen Bros Dr. L Riesling Sparkling NV
GermanySparkling wine is hardly news to Germans where it’s been called Sekt since the late 1800s, and they remain the largest consumers of sparkling wine in the world. Dr. L Sparkling is riesling made in the Charmat style, leaving it soft and round with a light, frothy undercurrent. There is a fair bit of sweetness here but with just enough acidity to keep it on keel. A fun sipper best served with spicy appetizers.
