Loosen Bros. Dr. L. Sparkling Riesling

Deutscher Sekt, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

Off dry but tastes less sweet because of he bubbles. Fans of Dr. L Riesling will lap this bubbly up, literally! It's fresh and crisp with lovely white peach and toasty pear notes. And my goodness, the price: you can't beat it. Is it a typo? Stock up for your weddings and big parties now. Try with fresh steam lobster and a marriage proposal.
