Furst, Riesling Pur Mineral , 2024
Weingut Rudolf Fürst, established in the Franconian village of Bürgstadt since 1638, represents one of Germany's finest Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder) producers. The estate crafts wines using low-tech, minimal-intervention winemaking: open-mash fermentation followed by 12-20 months in Burgundian oak barrels, bottled without filtration. This Riesling—a departure from the estate's Spätburgunder focus—captures the distinctive character of Franken's rocky Buntsandstein (red sandstone) soils. The Pur Mineral designation indicates wines emphasizing minerality and terroir expression. These wines are expected to arrive February 26—a brief wait for wines of genuine character and complexity. For those seeking to understand German Riesling beyond the Mosel and Rhine regions, Fürst's Franken expressions offer new perspectives.
