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.

A wonderful entry point into the world of Andi Weigand, this blend of four indigenous Franconian varietals sure is a bright and juicy thing. 

Andi’s goal with this wine is to produce a low alcohol, fresh and energetic wine. There is a real lightness across a palate full of grapefruits, apples, and cedar trees. The nose is bright and full of life, while over the palate, the flavours and lithe texture delight the senses with honeysuckle and guava.
