In the estate's own words:

"No one can lead an estate all by themselves. Especially not on the steepest slopes of the Mosel Valley. Eva Clüsserath knows that her family stands behind her always with aid and encouragement. Father Ansgar gave the estate its name; mother Elsbeth helps her winemaking daughter in the vineyard, the sales office and the guest house. And naturally there is also a built-in support system through husband Philipp Wittmann, whose Rheinhessian perspective offers a counterpoint to Eva's more typically Mosel stylings."

Eva's wines are must-trys if you are yet to sample them, with a remarkable ability to ignite even the most latent passion for the wines of the Mosel - bone dry (except for the sweet Kabinett which comes in at 8% abv), textured and superbly balanced Rieslings with bags of character from gentle handling and slow fermentation with ambient yeast in traditional large oak Mosel fuders - and an extended period of lees ageing well into the Spring, that lends body and finesse. The best wines emanate from the revered Trittenheimer Apotheke vineyard, a steep and sheltered craggy slope with a rocky slate subsoil that faces southwest, and on which many staked 100+ year old vines produce tiny, concentrated berries year after year!

In order to celebrate the 31 Days of Riesling this July we have put together this delightful mixed case of first-class Mosel Riesling from the Clüsserath estate, offering up a superb opportunity to taste several different cuvees across three separate vintages, with 2019, 2020 and 2021 bottlings of Steinreich, Vom Schiefer and Trittenheimer Apotheke, showing how elegantly these magnificent wines can develop with careful cellaring. The case is rounded off with some tremendous sweet wines, with a pair of Kabinett wines from the famed Trittenheimer Apotheke vineyard, as well as a fabulously rich and sensual Spatlese from Neumagener Rosengartchen.
