Pünderich Marienburg Falkenlay Riesling GG
Grey slate, a protected bend in the Moselle river and over four decades of biodynamic viticulture — the Falkenlay parcel of Marienburg produces Rieslings that combine fruit and minerality in an unusual way.
Clemens Busch has been cultivating his steep vineyards in Pünderich according to biodynamic principles (Demeter-certified) since the 1980s. Within the Marienburg estate, the Falkenlay vineyard is considered a particularly privileged individual parcel: the grey slate stores heat, and its location in the Moselle bend protects it from cold north winds. The result is Rieslings with more ripeness and texture than is often expected on the Moselle.
In the glass, it reveals a creamy richness – white peach, ripe mirabelle plum, beneath which lies the typical slate minerality and a salty-mineral aftertaste. The acidity is present but integrated; the finish is long and powerful.
