Clemens Busch, Marienburg 'Falkenlay' Riesling Trocken GG 2021
In the glass, the 2021 Falkenlay GG is precise and tightly woven, opening with aromas of white peach, citrus zest, herbs, and a subtle smoky, slate-driven minerality. The palate is firm and linear, with layers of stone fruit, crushed rock, and spice carried by razor-sharp acidity. Structured yet graceful, it shows both intensity and finesse, with a long, saline finish. Among the first German winemakers to embrace organic farming in 1984, Clemens Busch is celebrated as one of the leading biodynamic producers of the Mosel, crafting wines that are both pure and expressive of their individual vineyard sites. They are members of the prestigious VDP organisation of the top producers in Germany.
JCP Maltus, Le Nardian Blanc 2022
Le Nardian is the product of a wager between their now-retired Consulting Oenologue, Gilles Pauquet (also consultant to Chateau Cheval Blanc, Figeac and Canon) and JCP Maltus, that a low cropped white would see similar benefits to a red wine. This characterful white Bordeaux includes 15% low-cropped Muscadelle (cousin of Viognier) that gives a Rhône-like aromatic richness and texture, and ensures Le Nardian makes fans at every tasting for its distinctively rich, exotic profile.
