Dr. Loosen

The Loosen family has been growing Riesling and producing wine in the Mosel valley for over 200 years. With its cool climate, distinctive mineral-rich slate soil, and old ungrafted vines in some of the Mosel valley’s best vineyards, the estate produces stunningly intense, world-class wines. Since he assumed ownership in 1988, Ernst “Erni” Loosen quickly propelled the reputation of Dr. Loosen into the highest echelon of Germany’s finest producers, successfully cementing his place amongst the world’s most iconic and influential winemakers.

Villa Wolf

In 1996, Ernst Loosen took over the J.L. Wolf estate, now known as Villa Wolf, and seized the opportunity to rebuild another traditional winery with prime sites, launching a dramatic turnaround in the estate`s quality and reputation.

J. Christopher

Crafting terroir-focused wines from the heart and soil of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, J. Christopher follows a patient winemaking approach that clearly expresses the unique character of its cool-climate roots, showcasing the Old World finesse and elegance that Erni has always pursued in his German wines.
