Marienburg "Fahrlay" RESERVE Grosse Lage (Grand Cru) Riesling dry 2018
It offers an herbaceous spicy nose with the fruity elements (including pear, melon, mirabelle plum and greens) playing only a secondary role at the moment. On the palate, the wine is nicely intense and grippy, leaving a feeling of spice and ripe fruit in the long finish. The aftertaste is soft and quite long lasting.

The Fahrlay area is right next to the Pünderich ferry landing stage and is the only area of the Pünderich Marienburg where blue slate dominates. The blue slate is much harder than grey and red slate. The vines have a hard time when they are young; only after 15-20 years have the roots penetrated the deep, watery cracks in the slate. There, even in dry years, they find enough water and nutrients to supply the grapes optimally. Only the best healthy grapes are used for this Grosse Gewächs. The result is extremely mineral wines that often appear edgy and cool in their youth, but then present themselves with increasing complexity as they mature and show great storage potential.
For our RESERVE filling, we select a "Fuder" in Große Gewächs quality. This wine remains in the barrel for at least 24 months on the full lees. After this particularly long lees storage, the wine is taken off the lees and bottled unfiltered. The reserve wines are less fruity but more structured and complex. These wines need a lot of time to develop, but patience pays off!

The family's old manor house is located directly on the banks of the Moselle with a view of the vineyards of the Marienburg site. Since 1986, Clemens and Rita Busch have been running the winery according to strict criteria of organic viticulture.
