Clemens Busch Riesling Vom Grauen Shiefer 2020
Regular price $85.00
Clemens started working in his father’s 2-hectare estate in 1975. He stopped using herbicides in 1976, then in 1984 he and wife Rita converted to organics. They were among the first in Germany to begin consciously growing grapes this way and they became instrumental in the movement establishing an association of organic growers in 1986. While farming organically they began using various preparations from the biodynamic toolkit, finally converting entirely in 2005. - Vinous Solutions, importer
The Vom Grauen Schiefer comes from grey slate soils which display in the wine as flinty, wet stone minerality. With notes of pear and spice, this wine is hugely appealing.
