Horst Sauer's Escherndorfer Lump is one of Franconia's most celebrated Silvaner sites, and this Grosses Gewächs delivers the grape's characteristic earthy, savory depth alongside herbal citrus and stone-fruit character. It's a serious, structured dry white with a firm mineral backbone that reflects the shell-limestone soils of the Lump vineyard. Expect a wine that rewards patience at the table — composed and food-friendly rather than showy.
