A franconian classic: Silvaner. Deeply rooted in Keuper soil it really shows what the terroir tastes like: crispy, spicy with a lot of herbs. This vintage was harvested in mid September from vines of around 45 years. The grapes were direct pressed, fermented in old oak barrels and left for 9 months on full lees before racking and bottling.
ABOUT ANDI WEIGAND
Andi Weigand is part of the new guard on the German wine scene, throwing out the book of German winemaking, and reshaping the wine landscape. A second generation winemaker, Andi began his journey making wine under his family label Weingut Weigand in 2015. With the first release of the natural wines under his eponymous label in 2018, also the first year their vineyards achieved organic certification.
His vineyards are located on the Iphöfer Kronsberg, a slope that features Keuper soil including the oldest Muller Thurgau in the region, over 60 years-old. He uses an 80 year old basket press and very large wooden barrels. While he has modernized the winery, he has also maintained tradition: every grape is picked by hand, and every wine is carefully handcrafted, with incredible attention to detail. All wines are filled without filtration or adding any sulfur.
