Description
The 2018er Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Kabinett AP13 was made from fruit harvested at 91 Oechsle, and was fermented in traditional Fuder cask down to sweet levels of RS (80g/l). It proves still rather reduced and marked by residual scents from its spontaneous fermentation. It is only after quite some airing that the wine reveals beautiful scents of ripe lemon, pear, flowers, fine spices, a hint of whipped cream, and loads of smoky slate. The wine is beautifully racy and structured on the juicy palate. More lemon zest, cassis, peach and smoke are joined by a stunning feel of wet stone, pear, peach and white flowers in the long focussed finish. While it may have a bit too much flesh to qualify as a racy Kabinett, this playful Spätlese-styled riesling remains incredibly juicy, pure and long. Now wonder Clemens and Rita Busch decided to bring this cask to Auction. It is a massive success! 2028-2048 Mosel Fine Wine
