The charming and self-effacing couple of Clemens and his wife Rita have gained a
cult following over the past three decades for their laser-sharp, richly
textured and terroir defined wines. Riesling is the king of grapes, the Mosel
its most illustrious terrain and so produces its ultimate expression. Nowhere in
the world is the identification of vine, winemaker and produce more precisely
defined, and nowhere have we found Rieslings to compare with these.

In the sweet versus dry debate, it’s worth noting that Clemens only uses natural
yeasts, preferring each wine to find its perfect balance in each vintage.

Biodynamic, they have been members of Respekt - a group of winemakers who work
biodynamically - since 2015. Clemens has long been a pioneer in organic
viticulture, abandoning herbicides as early as 1976. In the early 80s his
philosophy became more clearly defined as he met other Mosel producers
interested in following these methods. At this time, he also started to
experiment with lower sulphur levels and although he has made wines with zero
sulphur, he thinks the combination of Riesling and the Lower Mosel climate calls
for small additions to achieve the best results.
