Description
“The 2021er Marienburg GG Rothenpfad, as it is referred to on the main part of the label, was fermented spontaneously in traditional oak casks from fruit harvested in an iron-rich part of the Marienburg vineyard. It offers a most beautiful and finely flowery nose of minty herbs, licorice, smoke, lime tree, yellow peach, gooseberry, grapefruit, and thyme. It shows great precision and intensity on the palate, which is driven by spices and zesty elements. The finish is still slightly razor-sharp, something which needs to integrate into the wine before true greatness. 2026-2036” 94 Mosel Fine Wines
“From 1.8 hectares with partly 80+-year-old vines, the 2021 Marienburg GG Rothenpfad is clear, darker-toned and flinty on the fresh and herbal nose, with ripe and intense, red-skinned fruit aromas and notes of broken slate. Lush and round on the palate, this is a mouth-filling, intense and juicy as well as saline Riesling with fine grip. Tasted as a sample at the domaine in July 2022.” 93-94 Stephan Reinhardt
