Soil and vine spacing

Recorded soil: Predominantly grey slate in the original sector below the former Marienburg convent; named subsectors include red-, blue- and grey-slate parcels. Geology: Devonian slate in multiple colours and degrees of weathering.

The geological description alone is not enough to infer drainage, water storage or measured soil density.

A soil name is not a bulk-density measurement. BottlePicker only shows soil bulk density where a laboratory or modelled value exists. Texture interpretation follows USDA NRCS soil-water guidance.

Growing-temperature context

Riesling: Cool-climate example; typically 1,800–2,500 growing degree days on the °F scale, equivalent to about 1,000–1,390 °C-days accumulated above a 10°C base.

Heat bands use Oregon State University Extension. The OIV climate method treats growing-season temperature as accumulated heat above 10°C, not a fixed daily target.
