The wine region of Escherndorf

Franconian village on a bend of the Main, renowned for the Lump (VDP Grosse Lage, 25 ha), a concave south-facing amphitheatre on Muschelkalk (Triassic shell limestone). Silvaner is the signature white — dry and mineral with intense pear, citrus, green apple, herbs and a stony-saline edge, superb finesse and ageing. Taut Riesling complements. Home of Horst and Rainer Sauer estates.


The wine region of Franken

Homeland of German Silvaner: dry, straight, mineral and lively whites with notes of green apple, citrus, fresh herbs and a saline touch, planted here for over 350 years (1,500 ha, a quarter of the vineyard). Also supple, floral Müller-Thurgau, taut Riesling, aromatic Bacchus. Some discreet reds (Spätburgunder). 6,040 ha in Bavaria along the Main around Würzburg, red sandstone and shell-limestone soils.

The word of the wine: Reassembly

During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
