Loosen Barry Walhalla Mosel Riesling

The wine is made from Mosel Riesling grapes grown on the Erdener Treppchen vineyard, raised in the Australian style. By this we mean it’s bone dry, with long aging on the fine lees in stainless steel tanks. Walhalla is German for "Garden of the Gods" where the souls of heroes slain in battle were received by Odin and where they celebrated with all-day feasts and drinking sprees.

'Mango, cumquat, sour apple, flowers and a little fresh mint. Quite fleshy and powerful, savoury and juicy, fine dusting of texture, fairly soft acidity, some zest and tang on a solid finish. It’s a bit chunky, but in a good way.'
