Clemens and his wife Rita are the charming and humble couple behind Clemens Busch, a winery that has gained a cult following over the past three decades for their laser-sharp, richly textured, terroir-defined wines. Among the first German winemakers to embrace organic farming in 1984, their estate fully transitioned to biodynamic production in 2005. They are members of the prestigious VDP organisation of the top producers in Germany.
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Marienburg Felsterrasse is a dry wine (with 9 g/l of residual sugar) fermented spontaneously in traditional oak casks from fruit harvested late in a prime terraced part of the grey-slate Falkenlay sector and which underwent an extended maturation on its lees. It offers a delicately zesty and superbly reductive nose of fine spices, anise, spearmint, violet, bergamot, and smoke. The wine develops a great sense of presence on the palate. While there are some creamy elements, the zesty side of the wine takes over and gives a great playful side. The finish is still very compact and has a touch of tartness, but already hints at the greatness to come. This combines density with finesse in a very subtle and great way and proves a superb dry Riesling. 2026-2041"
