Clemens Busch - Riesling Grosses Gewachs Marienburg Rothenpfad 2022
Mosel Fine Wines: 93 Points
It offers a very impressive nose made of grapefruit, pear, vineyard peach, ginger, bergamot, and spices. The wine is beautifully balanced and focused on the palate and leaves a gorgeous feel of freshness and yet balanced smoothness in the long finish. The aftertaste is all about spices and herbs. This is a great dry Riesling in the making.- Jean Fisch and David Rayer
Vinous: 92-94 Points
The 2022 Pündericher Marienburg Grosses Gewächs Rothenpfad is the area above the viaduct with red-colored slate; these were parcels that had fallen fallow, but the Busch family was able to unite several parcels, re-cultivate and build a monorail track. The GG is made from vines between 70 and 100 years old, not the newer plantings. The nose is of red apple, with a smattering of pepper and subtle yarrow. The very fine palate tingles with spice, hints of saltiness and notions of tangerine peel with a pithy, textural streak, adding an extra dimension and beautiful depth. Long and elegant.
