Clemens Busch Marienburg Rothenpfad GG 2021 Bottle size: 750ml
Germany, Mosel
R735
‘A standout 2021 Mosel GG! Stunning nose of peach and wild herbs with a touch of leesy youthfulness. Excellent concentration and a gracefulness that is rare with this vintage. So focused and finely nuanced, the fruit and wet stone minerality ripple over the palate. I love the delicate citrusy notes at the long, vibrant finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Respekt certification. Drink or hold.’ – Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com, 95/100
‘From 1.8 hectares with partly 80+-year-old vines, the 2021 Marienburg GG Rothenpfad is clear, darker-toned and flinty on the fresh and herbal nose, with ripe and intense, red-skinned fruit aromas and notes of broken slate. Lush and round on the palate, this is a mouth-filling, intense and juicy as well as saline Riesling with fine grip. Tasted as a sample at the domaine in July 2022. 2025-2050’ – Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate, 93-94/100

| Producer information | Clemens is the 5th-generation winemaker at his family estate and began using organic practices in 1984. Later a pioneer in biodynamics, Clemens Busch is now a role model for natural, but precise German winemaking. Unlike most of the Mosel region, however, Clemens focuses on dry, elegant Rieslings that express the complex terroir of this historic region. Their unique soils in the town of Pündericherallow them to produce many iterations of the Riesling grape. Clemens Busch is based on the 3 types of slate – red, blue and grey – each imparting different characteristics and styling. |
