As a winemaker and business economist, I know the processes in the vineyard and in the cellar “from an early age”. Growing and growing wine, giving it that special character, is both a job and a vocation for me. Wine is more than just a drink in a restaurant's glass. Wine is culture. Wine is also a pleasure. My goal is to bring this philosophy closer to wine lovers when they follow me in one key statement: “Wine is not a mass product.”
My winegrowing business, which I manage with my parents in the 5th generation, is located at the foot of Würzburger Kirchberg in Heidingsfeld. The building was built in 1996 because the old courtyard in the center of Heidingsfeld became too small. Step by step, the company building, which functions as a machine hall, and the extension with our holiday apartments were added.
As early as 2013, I took over the Silvaner vineyard from my grandfather and produced my first own grapes there, which I had grown and marketed as a member of the cooperative, just like my parents and grandparents before. At the beginning of 2017, I decided to produce and market my own wine.
A Franconian wine tasting is much more than an “event”. Connoisseurs know that a successful wine tasting should only be offered by an expert. Location, compatibility, degree of oechsle and acidity, special aging features, information about the winemaker, drinking temperature, choice of glass, the coordinated sequence of wines to be tasted: Take the time and let yourself be carried away by the many secrets of Franconian top wines. Always, of course, in the right atmosphere, at exceptional locations and combined with Franconian specialities.
Are you planning a wine tasting for your guests or customers? Would you like a real “Franconian highlight” for your birthday or anniversary? Then you've come to the right place. I will probably surprise you when it comes to choosing the wines and the “locations”. The most important thing: You and your guests will experience an unforgettable wine tasting experience. I promised.
