Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Fermentation on the skins in a traditional open-top oak fermenter. Gentle pressing followed by maturation for around 18 months in 228-litre Burgundian oak barrels. Then bottling.

Very elegant and fine on the nose. Tremendous substance and dense minerality on a firm palate, leading to a delicate finish underscored by ripe red fruit.

The Fürst family own 11 hectares on this incline that rises up steeply in places above the town of Burgstädt. The southerly aspect, a unique microclimate, and soils consisting of loam-rich, weathered red sandstone provide excellent conditions for growing vines.
