| The estate is located in the city of Würzburg in the Franken wine-growing region in Germany. It was founded in 1576 by prince bishop Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn (1545-1617), along the lines of the Hospices de Beaune. For this purpose, he acquired the „Judengarten” (Jews garden) site outside the old city precincts. Even while the prince bishop was still alive, he transferred adequate income and extensive property holdings to the foundation, this included agricultural and forestry land as well as vineyards, including holdings in the world-famous Würzburger Stein site. A hospital as well as other charitable institutions are maintained to this day. The vaulted cellar is 250 metres long, and was built by Antonio Petrini in 1699. There is an own vinotheque, called the ”Weinecke Julius Echter”. The vineyards have a total area of 168 hectares, and are spread all over Franken. The holdings include parts of the Mainhölle site in Bürgstadt; Berg-Rondell in dettelbqach; Lump in Escherndorf; Domherr and Julius-Echter-Berg in Iphofen; Pfülben and Teufelskeller in Randersacker; Küchenmeister in Rödelsee; Johannisberg in Thüngersheim; Karthäuser in Volkach, as well as the Abtsleite, Innere Leiste, Pfaffenberg and Stein sites in Würzburg. Grape varieties palnted are Silvaner (48 ha), Müller-Thurgau (21 ha), Riesling (20 ha), Pinot Noir (8 ha), Bacchus (6 ha), Scheurebe (3 ha), Rieslaner (2 ha), Domina, Traminer, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Muskateller and others. The wines are fermented slowly, and are then matured on the lees. Maturation is in a combination of stainless steel tanks and in oak vats, some of which are more than 100 years old. The estate is a member of the VDP (Verband deutscher Prädikats- und Qualitäts-Weingüter) association.

The vintage 2000 |
| The range of wines presented from the 2000 vintage is not quite consistent in quality, which is understandable in view of the problems associated with this vintage, although overall it is of a solid and dependable quality. The question here is simply whether this quality is good enough for a producer that claims to be at the very pinnacle in Franken. The wines I liked best from this vintage were particularly the firmly woven Rieslaner Auslese, while the two dry Silvaner Spätlese wines from the Rödelsee and Würzburg vineyards were also rather good. There is also a powerful Bacchus Spätlese from Iphofen, which may yet surprise us all once it has had some time to mature in bottle. |

The vintage 1999 |
The Juliusspital produces classic Franken wines, in the best sense of the word. Practically all the wines show a dense, robust structure, and a relatively powerful body. Cellar-master Benedikt Then has the talent to achieve a magnificent balance in most of these wines. In this vintage, the only significant exceptions are the Rieslings, which all lack a bit of extract, with the lower quality levels showing some signs of being unripe. In some of these cases, in the more basic wines, there is also evidence of an atypical prematurely aged character. By far the most convincing of the 1999 wines tasted so far are the supple, firmly structured Silvaner Spätlese as well as the muscular and at the same time perfectly balanced Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc) Spätlese.
Some samples of the 1997 and 1998 vintages serve to confirm the high level of quality of this producer, and raise our expectations for further wines of this vintage still to be released. Among the older wines tasted were two magnificent 1997 Würzburger Stein Beerenauslese wines made from Riesling and Silvaner respectively (95 resp. 93 points). We enjoyed an extremely elegant, silky 1998 Würzburger Abtsleite Traminer Spätlese (89 points), as well as an elegant Weissburgunder Kabinett trocken from the Volkacher Karthäuser vineyard which at the same time shows tremendous presence. This wine simply could not have been made any better (85 points). Together with the 1999 Traminer Spätlese this provides eloquent proof that Benedikt Then has a real feel for this variety. |
