Riesling Pünderich Kabinett VDP Ortswein 2024

Wine description for Riesling Pünderich Kabinett VDP Ortswein 2024 by Clemens Busch

Colour & appearance

Radiant, pale yellow shot through with distinct green reflections.

Nose

Alluring notes of citrus, pear and juicy peach intertwine with ethereal elderflower and blossom honey. Behind them lies a finely chiselled, cool minerality, underscored by aromas of fresh herbs.

Palate

A dance of classic lightness: on the palate, a delicate, gentle residual sweetness meets a lively, invigorating acidity. At just 7.5% abv, this Mosel Kabinett feels weightless, elegant and utterly moreish.

Terroir & origin

The grapes come from the steep slopes surrounding Pünderich on the Mosel. The soil – characterised by red, grey and blue slate – imparts a pronounced mineral signature to Clemens Busch’s wines. The roots of these partly ancient vines penetrate metres deep into the rock.

Grape variety & vinification

A classic Riesling from biodynamic viticulture (Demeter-certified). In the cellar, Clemens Busch exercises pure restraint: fermented with artisanal care to capture the carefree fruit and freshness of the 2024 vintage.

Food recommendations

Excellent with mildly spicy Asian dishes such as Thai curry, zesty papaya salad, or with creamy Munster cheese and delicate fruit desserts.

Special characteristics

A traditional Mosel Kabinett at its finest: the minimal alcohol level, paired with the dancing interplay of sweetness and acidity, ensures an effortless drinkability of remarkable freshness.
