Discovering the wine region of Escherndorf

Escherndorf is a winegrowing Village to the west of Franken/volkach">Volkach in Franken, Germany. Winemaking and viticulture has existed in the area for more than 1000 years. The village comprises two key concave-shaped Vineyards: Fürtsenberg and Lump. Escherndorfer Lump, located to the northeast of the village, is the top site due to its predominantly south-facing exposures.

Silvaner and Riesling vines are planted on clay and limestone slopes, some of which extend down into local properties. A unique microclimate for viticulture is created in Escherndorf by steep hillsides that follow the arc of the Main river below. This natural amphitheater provides optimal grape-growing conditions, as it protects the vines from the cold northerly and easterly winds while also acting as a suntrap. Escherndorf Am Lumpen 1655 forms a small section of the larger Lump vineyard and is classified as Grosse Lage by the VDP.

This vineyard also produces several expressions of Grosses Gewächs wines.

The word of the wine: Performance

Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
