Weingut

Das über 700 Jahre alte Stiftungsweingut Bürgerspital bewirtschaftet auf seinen 120 Hektar Silvaner, Müller-Thuragu und Riesling, die typischen Weine aus der Region Franken. Abgefüllt werden die edlen Tropfen in den traditionellen Bocksbeutel, welche Lagen wie die Monopollage Würzburger Stein-Harfe oder die VDP Erste Lage Würzburger Stein glänzen lässt.

Jahrgangsbericht

Vintage 2018 and 2019 were very dry years; luckily in 2019 the ground had enough water reserves. Vines started to flower on June 8th preparing the harvest team for an early harvest. Rain in June led to a summer which was very dry with plenty of sunshine in July and August. The harvest started in early September with small, ripe juice content and was finished within the month. Despite the hot summer, lack of rain and low yields the grape quality and acidity levels were fine and the 2019 vintage is looking very good and promising to be a vintage with good aging potential but low yields.
