Weißer Burgunder R - Rudolf Fürst

With the Rudolf Fürst Weißer Burgunder R, a first-class white wine finds its way into the glass. It presents a wonderfully bright, pale yellow color. If you give it some air by swirling it in the glass, you can perceive an outstanding balance in this white wine, as it does not appear watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like on the sides of the glass. The bouquet of this white wine from Franconia seduces with hints of lemon. Following the aromatics further, lime leaves and caramel emerge, promoted by the influence of oak.

The Rudolf Fürst Weißer Burgunder R presents itself to the wine lover as wonderfully dry. This white wine never appears coarse or lean, but rather round and smooth. On the palate, this well-balanced white wine is characterized by an extremely light texture. The finish of this well-ageable white wine from the Franconian wine-growing region ultimately delights with a remarkable length. The aftertaste is also accompanied by mineral notes from the sandstone- and loess-dominated soils.

Vinification of Rudolf Fürst Weißer Burgunder R

This balanced white wine from Germany is made from the Pinot Blanc grape variety. In Franconia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on loess and sandstone soils. Weißer Burgunder R is an Old World wine through and through, as this German wine exudes an exceptional European charm that clearly underscores the success of wines from the Old World. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
