Drawn from the Fahrlay parcel of the great Marienburg vineyard, this Riesling Reserve is a striking expression of blue slate terroir. This is serious, age-worthy Mosel Riesling, the kind of wine that rewards patience as much as it impresses in youth.
Clemens and Rita Busch are among the Mosel’s most respected growers, pioneers of organic and biodynamic viticulture long before it became fashionable. They’ve worked their steep Marienburg vineyards without herbicides since the 1970s, focusing on old vines, natural fermentation, and minimal intervention. Over the past three decades, their dedication has earned them a cult following, with wines that capture the Mosel’s essence in its purest, most expressive form.
What the critics say:
"Bottled in November, the 2019 Marienburg Fahrlay Reserve is clear, intense and purely slatey on the iodine and lemon-scented, crunchy nose. Lush and generous yet refined and saline on the palate, this is a crystalline, refined and elegant, pure, saline and juicy Riesling with generous, very intense and sustainable fruit. A spectacularly good wine. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022."
