Producer Information: Weingut Carl Loewen

Weingut Carl Loewen, rooted in the Mosel region of Germany, traces its origins to 1803 when the family acquired vineyards during the secularization of church lands. The estate is celebrated for its dedication to traditional winemaking methods, particularly spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and minimal intervention in both vineyard and cellar. Their philosophy centers on expressing the unique terroir of steep slate slopes along the Mosel River, especially through old-vine Riesling from historic parcels like Maximin Herrenberg. Beyond their flagship dry and off-dry Rieslings, Carl Loewen also crafts elegant Pinot Blancs and limited-edition sparkling wines that reflect the cool climate and mineral-rich soils of Leiwen.
