Family-owned for over 200 years, the winery has been managed by Ernst F. Loosen since 1988. Great wines, he believes, are the perfect expression of soil, climate and grape variety. With the heritage of his ancestors – old vines, true to their roots, in historic Grand Cru sites of the Middle Mosel – he found exactly the material he needed to produce independent, complex wines of world class. Today applies Dr. Loosen internationally as the figurehead for a rediscovered German Riesling culture. Since 1993, the winery has been a member of the VDP (Association of German Quality Wineries).
