Naturally fermented Riesling

Organic pioneer Clemens Busch produces very distinctive Riesling in the Moselle with a strong terroir expression. The technical human intervention in the cellar is subordinate to the style of the wine. The natural yeast from the vineyard largely determines how the wine smells and tastes and therefore causes differences per plot and barrel.

Clemens lets nature do its work. It is therefore common for fermentation to be slow and long, sometimes as long as eight to ten months. A length of time that modern winemakers consider very extreme and even irresponsible! The assembly then gives great complexity and requires maturing in the bottle.

Such as this delicately scented, fresh-dry Riesling 'Vom Roten Schiefer', whose grapes come from vineyards with red slate. Despite the modest alcohol content, this wine has a powerful and long, lingering finish. This is only possible with the very low yield per vine that is common with Clemens Busch. Beautiful, gourmet wine.
