Dr. Loosen, J.L. Wolf and Robert Weil . . . Oh My!

On Wednesday, August 17th, at Wild Ginger Seattle we will be hosting a wine dinner based around three great German Riesling producers from vastly different, but equally amazing places in Germany. We will be serving wines from Dr. Loosen in the Mosel. J.L. Wolf in the Pfalz, and Robert Weil in the Rheingau. Kirk Wille and Desiree Schroeder from Dr. Loosen will be there to talk us through the Riesling groupings designed to show off the wide variety of soil types and richness levels.

In case that's not enough, Chef Jacky just put together the menu, and it looks delicious. See for yourself:
