The grapes were whole bunch crushed and fermented on their skins for 10 days before pressing. The juices then aged in large oak barrels from 2400L. After 1 year everything gets blended, bottling without any filtration nor addition of sulphur.
Full of juicy stone fruit, mango and lychee, followed by electric acidity and long lingering crunchy finish.
Andi took over the family estate after studying winemaking at Geisenheim. His family have been making wine since 1699 in Eckelsheim. His wines are full of energy and he continues to put biodiversity at the heart of what he does. “For me, natural wines are about openness and intensity of taste, and that’s what I want to show with my wines. I want to produce wines that show where they come from, and if they can show that for a long time - that is my dream and my goal.”
