Marienburg GG Felsterrasse Clemens Busch 2016 exemplifies the Mosel region`s unique terroir. This dry Riesling, unyielding in its character, presents notes of green apple and citrus, accompanied by mineral undertones derived from the slate soils. The wine`s precision is a reflection of both the vintage and the meticulous care taken in the vineyard, resulting in a product that speaks to the region`s heritage. Clemens Busch, a pioneer in organic viniculture, has garnered respect for his commitment to minimal intervention winemaking.

Vinous
A penetratingly high-toned and pungent nose delivers white peach, zesty lime and grapefruit, curry powder and mustard seed. The expansive and lees-enriched, almost custardy palate combines luscious fruit with incisive and piquant impingements of fruit kernels and spice. A tart suggestion of crab apple adds to the cheek-tugging intensity and overall invigoration of this riveting performance. The vibrant finish – like that of this wine’s Fahrlay stablemate – delivers a wealth of alkaline, stony and saline matter, with a mouthwatering and umami-rich evocation of oyster liquor and raw oyster innards. What’s more, at barely 12% alcohol, there is a lovely sense of lift to accompany this profoundly complex wine’s striking clarity.
