A sweet finish to a great #LA #wine tour! Very subtle amounts of #botrytis that give this sweet little baby years and years of aging potential supported by a fine core of ripe acidity--2013 was an excellent vintage on the #Mosel and this gem is just one of many examples of how great the late-picked Rieslings turned out. #ClemensBusch #Rothenpfad #Riesling #Auslese #Rieslinglover — 10 years ago
This softer, more approachable 2011 #GrossesGewächs (#GG) needs advance #decanting in order to really express its enormous potential--layers of #tropical fruit notes and #mineral flavors abound--drinks now but has years of life ahead of it. #clemensbusch #riesling #Mosel — 10 years ago
Next to the more opulent #ClemensBusch #Falkenlay this gorgeous #Frühlingsplätzchen seemed restrained and almost shy like the cute little girl at the party that no one asks to dance.
Make no mistake...this is a real "Sleeping Beauty"! #EmrichSchönleber #2012 #grossegewächs #Riesling #Nahe — 11 years ago

Old 19th century throw-back style of dry #Mosel #Riesling from the finest parcels in the greater #Marienburg vineyard...long fermentation along with long lees contact give this epic wine amazing concentration and complexity! #ClemensBusch — 12 years ago
Vintage 2017 | When God granted winegrower qualities, Clemens Busch was on the forefront. Absolutely lovely. Balancing spicyness and honey, sweet and acidity. — a year ago
And we begin with the #GG's! Only gray #slate from the middle section of the greater Marienburg and sourced from "younger vines" that are already 30 years old. A sleeping giant at this point but given ample time to breathe and open up in a decanter it is an impressive experience! #ClemensBusch #Riesling #Marienburg #GrossesGewächs #Mosel #terroirist — 10 years ago


This is double whammy--great vintage & very small gray slate tiny terraced parcel comprised of old vines--85 years--KILLER JUICE! #Riesling #ClemensBusch #Marienburg — 12 years ago
Very refreshing. Not overly sweet. Punchy but nuanced — 7 years ago
Absolutely radiant, opulent, glimmering wine... perfect ripeness and balance are the hallmark of this truly stunning entry-level effort... what an awesome vintage! #vintage2015 #germanwine #Mosel #ClemensBusch #Riesling #trocken #estate #dry — 10 years ago
Here is another great, #dry #Mosel from 2013 that's packed with layered, spicy, powerful flavors due to its #red #slate soil--drink this with Asian cuisines of all kinds or simply by itself--this wine SINGS! #clemensbusch #Riesling #vomrotenschiefer — 10 years ago
Comparing this to the Emrich-Schönleber was like apples and oranges...a much darker, more forward wine with layers of complex flavors and loads of minerality...a sleeping giant! #ClemensBusch #2011 #Falkenlay #Riesling #grossegewächs

Snappy and tangy. Like a lemon warhead. Eye rolling acidity with a salty backbone. Aged on the lees in partial neutral barrel. Biodynamic. — a month ago
