Clemens Busch - Riesling GG Marienburg Fahrlay
Riesling from Mosel, Germany

A Bowler favorite, year after year. Clemens’ only parcel of blue slate on the Marienburg, which imparts luster, florality, sizzling acids and fantastic staying power to the wine. There is some skin contact in this wine’s vinification, lending a mild tannic backbone. It’s a steely pleaseure for...

Riesling from Mosel, Germany

65-90 year old ungrafted vines planted on grey slate. A dry wine from a site famous for its noble sweets. Firm, vivid, gingery, incredibly ripe and saline with acidity that elevates it to a quiveringly “alive” state of being. Perhaps the best food wine in this collection and clearly a long term...

Clemens Busch - Riesling Marienburg Raffes GROSSE LAGE

From predominantly ungrafted vines on gray slate, the Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Raffes is a rich and powerful yet elegant and balanced Riesling with great tension, juice and expression.

Clemens Busch - Riesling Kabinett Marienburg
Riesling from Mosel, Germany

65g/l RS, 9.9g acid, 7.5% alc. Clemens doesn’t always make a fruity Kabinett, but when he does it is cause for celebration. The 2020 comes from the highest elevation slopes of the Marienburg, planted on grey slate between 1988 and 1990. An incredibly expressive, jazzy, fruit-blast of a wine with...
