2021 Clemens Busch Marienburg Rothenpfad Riesling Grosses Gewachs, Mosel, Germany

The Big Red One. The Rothenpfad interestingly is the terminus of the iron- and copper-rich red-colored geological formation that starts in the Saar, pops up at the rziger Wrzgarten, Erdener Prlat and Enkircher Steffensberg sites in the Middle Mosel, and ends at Pnderich. Clemens GG from here, like all wines made from such soil, is pungent and exotic with pronounced ripeness and great staying power. White wine for red meat.
