The rocky terrace is a barren, harsh piece of land – the soil here is particularly poor and less weathered than on the rest of the slope, which gives the 2023 Marienburg Felsterrasse GG Riesling from Clemens Busch a unique tension and taut structure. The nose is immediately seduced by stone fruit, bergamot, fennel, and arugula, enveloped by an almost crystalline freshness, underscored by ripe grapefruit and a hint of lime zest.

On the palate, a fascinating balance unfolds between perfectly ripe, delicately spicy fruit and an almost tangible mineral salinity, derived from the grey slate soil of the terraced vineyards. The acidity is precise and vibrant, the finish long, taut, and breathtakingly clear.

The Felsterrasse vineyard is one of the steepest and most spectacular sites within the Marienburg appellation. The terraces consist of pure, grey slate, which imparts a distinctive minerality and a firm acidity to the wines. The pure southern exposure and the extreme gradients ensure intense sunlight, giving the grapes exceptional ripeness and concentration. The Felsterrasse is renowned for its powerful yet elegant Rieslings, distinguished by their delicate spice and crystalline freshness.

Riesling is a first-class white wine known for its versatility and elegance. It is characterized by pronounced acidity, delicate fruit aromas, invigorating, light minerality, and outstanding aging potential. Thanks to the balanced climate, extensive steep slopes, and a veritable patchwork of soil types, the Mosel region in particular produces Riesling wines of the highest quality.

The vineyards of the Clemens Busch winery are among the steepest and most prestigious along the Moselle. The terraced vineyards offer optimal conditions for growing Riesling. The expressive soils, characterized by slate, impart a unique minerality and finesse to the grapes. The meticulous care of the vineyards and the focus on biodynamic viticulture underscore Clemens Busch's commitment to sustainable practices. The result is wines of exceptional quality and terroir expression that impressively represent the Moselle wine tradition.
