Pündericher Marienburg

Clemens Busch's principal vineyard, divided into sectors whose character follows the colour, hardness and weathering of the slate.

364 observations across 13 product series for wines linked to Pündericher Marienburg are retained from 25 Jul 2026 to 2 Sept 2026. None yet meets the conservative movement rule of at least three daily observations, one genuine change and a 0.5%–100% range.

Delivery, coupons and separately labelled live-shopping results are excluded. This is descriptive history, not a forecast; current availability remains on each bottle page.

What grows here, and why the site matters

What is planted

The vineyard record lists Riesling. These are planted varieties; an individual linked bottle may use one variety or a blend.

Soil structure and vine density

Source-recorded ground: 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 requirement

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.

Site conditions

Aspect: South to south-east-facing slope across the Mosel from Pünderich.
