Step inside one of the Mosel's most celebrated estates for an intimate, expert-led tasting of world-class Rieslings in historic cellars. This is the bucket-list wine encounter the valley is famous for.
What to expect
You are welcomed into the historic Dr. Loosen winery, whose roots stretch back over 200 years, by a knowledgeable estate guide. The tasting moves through a curated flight of Prädikat Rieslings — Spätlese, Auslese, Trockenbeerenauslese — each tied to a specific slate-terraced vineyard above the Moselle. The pace is leisurely and conversational, with discussion of terroir, vintage character, and the winery's biodynamic philosophy. You leave with a deeper appreciation of why Mosel Riesling is considered among the finest white wine on earth.
Good to know
Book directly via the winery's website or by email well in advance; private group sessions fill quickly in summer. The estate is a short taxi or riverside walk from the cruise dock. Allow 90 minutes minimum, leaving comfortable time before all-aboard.
