Clemens Busch Riesling Vom Roten Schiefer 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
Germany, Mosel
R400
‘Very fine spiced notes on the nose underlie juicy peach, kumquats and honey. Salty, dense and very long on the palate, with a lean structure and plenty of finesse leading to the long finish. There's some fine phenolics on show, but still closed - a lot of ageing potential contained within.’ – Ulrich Sautter, falstaff, 92/100
‘The 2022 Riesling vom Roten Schiefer comes from the Nonnengarten and the younger vines on the Rothenpfad. The immediately savory nose references pepper and dried fern. The palate continues in this savory vein with a hint of celery but adds a touch of salt and grapefruit pith. Beautifully spicy, very appetizing. (Dry) 2023-2045’ – Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous, 89-91/100

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. |
