  I had visited this tasting room across the street from the Juliusspital five years ago, during a renovation phase. This time it’s slick and together with a quiet crowd enjoying the wines by the glass. The staff was exceptionally helpful—coping with my travelers and tourist problems that deserve extra praise. The wines were all fine values and were individually expressive and consistent. Worth a quick, or even a relaxed, visit for any Würzburg-visiting wine lover
