Weingut Andres, Pfalz Spätburgunder vom Kalkmergel 2024

£22.00

With Riesling at the heart of the estate, alongside beautifully crafted Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the wines of Weingut Andres are celebrated for their precision, minerality, and elegant structure. Rich yet refined, they offer exceptional drinking pleasure in their youth while carrying a remarkable potential for ageing.

Guided by the motto "back to the roots", Michael and Thomas combine meticulous hand work in the vineyard with minimal intervention in the cellar — slow fermentation on natural yeasts and ageing in large traditional oak barrels — to produce wines that are authentic ambassadors of Deidesheim and the Pfalz.

Nestled in the heart of Deidesheim along the famous Deutsche Weinstraße, Weingut Andres is a family estate that embodies the perfect balance between tradition and a bold new vision. Founded by the brothers' grandfather, the estate has been passed down through three generations, each leaving its own mark on this exceptional property in the Mittelhaardt.

Since 2015, brothers Michael and Thomas Andres have taken the reins from their father Matthias, bringing with them a wealth of knowledge — Michael having studied oenology in Geisenheim and Thomas wine business management in Heilbronn. Known in the wine scene as the "Flintstone Brothers" for their distinctively reductive winemaking style, the duo has quickly become one of the most exciting names in German wine.
