Description

The Spätburgunder Tradition wine has a delightful aroma, rich in perfectly ripe fruit. Despite the strong fruity scent, the sandstone and cool terroir of Bürgstadt are still noticeable. The wine not only tastes ripe but also has a distinct flavour of stewed cherries. The texture is smooth, round, and elegant, and is concentrated, intense, and fleshy with a lot of fruitiness and appeal.

Weingut Rudolf Furst

Franconian family Fürst can document their history as winegrowers back to 1638. When Paul and Monika Fürst took over the winery in 1979, they built today’s estate buildings on the outskirts of the village. They renovated and re-cultivated the particularly beautiful, steep parcels in the best sites. They gradually expanded the vineyard area to the current 21 hectare. Their goal was to learn about and produce great Spätburgunder in a time before it was popular in Germany.

Franken

Franken, a distinctive wine region in northern Bavaria, Germany, is renowned for its unique wines and historic traditions. It benefits from a continental climate with warm summers and cold winters, as well as varied soils, including limestone and clay, ideal for viticulture. The area is particularly famous for its Silvaner, which produces wines with crisp acidity, earthy minerality, and subtle fruit flavors. It also excels in producing Müller-Thurgau, Bacchus, and Riesling, known for their aromatic and refreshing qualities. Franken's wines are often bottled in the traditional Bocksbeutel, a flat, round bottle. With its blend of unique terroir, traditional winemaking techniques, and characteristic bottle shape, Franken offers a captivating wine experience for anyone seeking high-quality and intrigue.
