Why You'll Love It
Silky, perfumed, perfect Pinot. Packed full of juicy raspberry, sour cherry and cassis. Soft spice and subtle sous bois sing the harmonies. The palate is soft and creamy, though lifted by a bright zing of mineral acidity and flavours of wild strawberry and earl grey tea.
An inviting choice for Burgundy lovers exploring further afield, and particularly good alongside roast duck and mushroom dishes.

About The Producer
The Fürst family has grown vines in Franken since 1638, but the estate’s modern story began when Paul and Monika took over in 1979. Paul became a pioneer of fine German Pinot Noir, drawing inspiration from Burgundy while restoring prized steep vineyards around Bürgstadt. Today, their son Sebastian and his wife Isabell lead the estate, with Paul still closely involved. Pinot Noir remains at its heart, supported by meticulous vineyard care, low yields and selective harvesting by hand. In the cellar, gentle handling and patient maturation allow the wines to develop their characteristic finesse, with elegance always the guiding ambition.
Winemaking Information
Grapes are hand-picked and carefully sorted from the steep, terraced Schlossberg vineyard above Klingenberg. Fermentation takes place in traditional open wooden vats, followed by gentle pressing and around 18 months’ maturation in Burgundian oak barrels. The estate favours patient, gentle winemaking, allowing the wines to settle naturally before bottling without filtration. This approach preserves the fruit’s freshness while developing fine tannins and subtle savoury complexity.
