✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted from the steep, sun-drenched slopes of the legendary Pündericher Marienburg vineyard, this Kabinett is a masterclass in Mosel tension and purity. The vineyard itself takes its name from a historical Franciscan convent that once stood high above the river bend, guarding these historic slopes. Clemens Busch utilizes biodynamic farming to coax the purest expression of the complex slate soils, which range from grey to red and blue. Fermented spontaneously in traditional oak Fuder casks, this wine captures the classic, ethereal play between vibrant, electric acidity and delicate residual sweetness. It is a historic style that showcases the Mosel's unique ability to produce wines of immense flavor and complexity at remarkably low alcohol levels.
🍾 About the Producer
Situated in the picturesque village of Pünderich along the dramatic slopes of Germany's Middle Mosel, Weingut Clemens Busch has been led by Clemens and Rita Busch since taking over the historic family estate in the 1980s. Regarded as pioneering trailblazers of organic and biodynamic viticulture in the region, the estate is dedicated to natural, low-intervention winemaking that deeply respects the ecosystem. Their work centers around the legendary, south-facing Pündericher Marienburg hillside, where varying sub-parcels of gray, red, and blue slate are vinified separately to showcase pure terroir expression. Clemens Busch is internationally acclaimed for profound, textured, and mineral-driven dry Rieslings—most notably their Grosses Gewächs expressions like Fahrlay, Falkenlay, and Rothenpfad—alongside exquisite noble sweet and sparkling wines.
