The 2024 ‘Fahrlay Terrassen’ GG is a bone-dry Riesling from one of the most distinctive parcels within the Pündericher Marienburg vineyard in the Mosel.

The name Fahrlay Terrassen refers to a small, terraced section of the historic Fahrlay site that sits close to the Mosel ferry landing at Pünderich. This plot is unique within Marienburg for its blue slate (blauer Schiefer) soils - a hard, very mineral Devonian slate that forces vine roots deep and contributes strong mineral tension, salinity and structural focus to the wine.

"GG" (Grosses Gewächs) is the VDP’s designation for a dry wine from the top tier in the classification, roughly equivalent to “Grand Cru”.

"The wines are exquisite, and each of the various Marienburg parcels is different: they shimmer aromatically, are alluring and profound, intense yet streamlined. Truly one of the Mosel’s best."
Anne Krebiehl, Vinous

Clemens and his wife Rita are a humble yet hugely respected duo, having built a cult following over the past 30 years for their incredibly precise, richly textured, and terroir-driven wines. Produced biodynamically and organically since 1984, they are a compelling choice for Riesling enthusiasts who appreciate a mineral-driven profile.

What the critics say:

98/100Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous

"The 2024 Riesling Pündericher Marienburg Fahrlay Terrassen Grosses Gewächs is from the oldest vines of the Marienburg, clocking in at more than 110 years old. Salt, slate and citrus are as tight on the nose as on the palate. It is a picture of linearity and concentrated, bundled brightness. This is like a streak of stone and lemon. It is naked, direct and so honest, like watching a steely arrow in slow motion. (Bone-dry) "
