Presents itself in a bright, pale straw yellow colour with characteristic green reflections - a classic appearance for a young Mosel Riesling from mineral slate soils.<\/p>\n
The bouquet immediately reveals the Crystalline clarity<\/strong>, for which Clemens Busch is famous. Intense stone fruit flavours dominate - from white to yellow Peach<\/strong>accompanied by Nashi pear<\/strong> and yellow apples<\/strong>. Floral notes of Jasmine<\/strong> and Orchids<\/strong> give the wine exceptional elegance. Subtle herbal nuances - Lemon balm<\/strong>, Lemon thyme<\/strong> and Chervil<\/strong> - round off the complex flavour spectrum.<\/p>\n On the palate, the Masterful balance<\/strong> between fruit, minerality and subtle residual sweetness (8.1 g\/l). The lively acidity (6.9 g\/l) elegantly carries the fruit flavours, while the stony, cool minerality of the grey slate forms a fascinating counterpoint to the fruit. Light-footed and delicate<\/strong> structured, never intrusive - a prime example of the finesse of the Mosel.<\/p>\n Traditional expansion with spontaneous fermentation<\/strong> in old 1000-litre wooden barrels, 10 months on the lees. The grapes come from higher plots in the P\u00fcnderich vineyards on grey slate, harvested in mid-October at 85-90\u00b0 Oechsle. With only 11% Alcohol<\/strong> a prime example of elegant, terroir-influenced Mosel Rieslings.<\/p>\n Harmonises perfectly with Smoked trout with dill and horseradish<\/strong>, Apple and kohlrabi salad with linseed and walnuts<\/strong> or grated cauliflower with sesame sauce and dates<\/strong>. Its mineral structure and subtle sweetness make it the ideal accompaniment for light fish dishes and refined vegetable preparations.<\/p>\n An authentic single vineyard wine<\/strong>, which perfectly reflects the terroir of the grey slate soils. Clemens Busch's uncompromising signature is evident in the crystalline clarity and the perfect balance between fruit and minerality - a Riesling that captures the essence of the Moselle.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
