Why You'll Love It
A benchmark German Pinot Noir with almost weightless elegance. Red berries and subtle floral aromas are backed by finely grained structure, savoury spice and impressive length. A special bottle for duck, game birds or a few years in the cellar.
About The Producer
Weingut Rudolf Fürst is among Germany's finest Pinot Noir specialists, based in Bürgstadt on the steep red-sandstone slopes of Churfranken. The Fürst family has grown grapes here for generations, but it was Rudolf Fürst who established the modern estate's international reputation, proving that Spätburgunder from the Main Valley can rival serious Burgundy. Today Sebastian Fürst builds on that work with close attention to individual vineyard parcels, low yields and finely judged oak maturation. Bürgstadter Berg and the celebrated Centgrafenberg and Hundsrück sites give wines with fragrant red fruit, savoury detail and remarkable finesse. The Burgstadter Berg Erste Lage captures the region's characteristic sandstone-driven freshness and depth at a level just beneath the estate's most prestigious Grosses Gewächs bottlings.
Winemaking Information
Centgrafenberg Grosses Gewächs is a classified Pinot Noir from the iron-rich red sandstone slopes above Bürgstadt. Selectively harvested grapes are fermented with attention to gentle extraction and aged in French oak. The 2023 vintage has been praised for exceptional delicacy, floral red fruit and superb length. Precise percentages of new oak and whole-cluster fermentation have not been independently confirmed for this exact 2023 wine.
