Description

The Fürst family has been involved in viticulture since 1638.  A new residence and state of the art cellar has been built recently atop the Centgrafenberg vineyard. The new site provides breathtaking views of the Main river valley and the picturesque medieval town of Miltenberg. Under Paul Fürst’s tenure the estate has grown from six to 37 acres. The vineyard takes its name from the Bürgstadter Centgraf (Centgraf is the leader of a settlement of 100 people).  Treatment of the vines and soil is near organic and as close to natural as possible. Paul Fürst makes remarkably elegant wines for a region renowned for rusticity. He produces wines of many different styles.  His 1990 Pinot Noir was a breakthrough and helped establish the variety as a serious category in Germany.
