"A zesty fragrance of grapefruit and lemon prepares for a truly invigorating
Riesling experience. On the palate the citrus fruit takes on a delightfully
sweet expression, which is perfectly balanced by animating acidity and rich
texture. Accents of fresh kiwi fruit and orange peel serve only to heighten the
sensory pleasure and complete a successful combination of generosity and
vibrancy. Drink 2016-2025." 18.5/20 Jancis Robinson (Aug-2016)

"The 2015 Pündericher Marienburg Riesling GG Rothenpfad is clear, fresh, deep,
precise and elegant on the spicy nose. Round, charmingly intense and lush, this
is a piquant, pure and finesse-full Riesling with sensually ripe fruit and an
intensely fruity finish. This wine has the lowest acidity of the grands crus but
has power, tension and a lot of charm." 92/100 Wine Advocate

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.

This section was mentioned in the historic Mosel wine map as among the best in
the region. The red slate that dominates here provides the wines with an
herbal-spicy note, balanced with a definite off-dry note. The opulence of the
vintage suits this wine perfectly – not for the faint-hearted!
