Augustin

Franken Riesling and Silvaner from Germany's mineral heartland.

Augustin operates in Franken, Germany's distinctive white wine region, where mineral-driven Rieslings and Silvaners thrive in the region's unique terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on two grapes that define the area: Riesling and Silvaner, each expressing the chalky, limestone-influenced character Franken is known for. The Bocksbeutel Connection Der Riesling and Edition Spezial >S< stand as the winery's flagship expressions, both achieving prestige ratings of 89 points. The Bocksbeutel Connection Der Alte, a Silvaner, follows at 88 points. These wines have been assessed by Falstaff, the influential German wine critic. The winery's focus on the region's traditional bottle shape—the distinctive Bocksbeutel—signals a commitment to Franken's viticultural identity. Augustin's wines reflect the precision and mineral intensity that characterize quality production in this underappreciated German region.
