Bocksbeutel, silvaner and a 500 year-old wine

In this special edition of the Törst podcast, we are joined by Robert Macgregor, export manager at the 700-year-old wine estate Bürgerspital zum Heiligen Geist in Würzburg, at the heart of Germany’s Franken wine region.

In an in-depth conversation, he tells us about the estate’s long history and social mission, the distinctive Bocksbeutel bottle and the role of Silvaner in Franken, as we taste four wines from the estate’s range.

We also hear the story of the “Swedish barrel” and the nearly 500-year-old wine resting in the estate’s cellar.

This episode of Törst is sponsored by Bürgerspital zum Heiligen Geist.
