About
Just because you are drinking something Alcohol-Free doesn’t mean you
have to sacrifice taste or quality. That is basically what DR. LO Riesling is
about, to show that an Alcohol-Free wine can also be amazing and
versatile and uncompromising in quality. There are lots of reasons to choose to drink alcohol free, but none of themshould include you drinking something sub-standard to what you normally drink when you do have a glass of wine.
To craft one of the finest alcohol-free Riesling wines you can find, it was given
very careful thought from the beginning. Before the process of removing
the alcohol began, they started with a vintage Mosel Riesling that was
already LO in alcohol, had only the natural sweetness of the grape without
any added sugar and had crisp acidity to give it balance. This base wine
underwent a state-of-the-art alcohol removal process, but the great thing
about DR. LO is that it already had LO alcohol to begin with so there was
the natural sweetness of the grape that had not been fermented out, so
instead of adding some grape must for sweetness back to the wine after
the alcohol removal process, we already had the natural sweetness in the
beginning.
Produced in 100 % stainless steel, during
fermentation the tank was chilled to help stop the fermentation process early and preserve the natural sugar

- Tasting Notes:
DR. LO Riesling has just the right amount of fruitiness to balance the crisp acidity. On the palate it is clearly Riesling, but it walks the line between a fruity and drier style. The characteristic acidity of Mosel Riesling helps it finish fresh and clean. If shown blind it may not be recognized as alcohol-free
