Riesling PurPur 2022 by Andi Mann is a vibrant and delicious natural wine made in Rheinhessen, Germany with 100% Riesling grapes.
The natural wine scene in Germany is having a moment right now. What once was fun and easy breezy wines has become much more serious, with longer aging on the lees, such as Marto now does with his Riesling Reserve.
At a recent tasting, this Riesling PurPur 2022 stood out in the same manner, having also seen 2 years in the barrel. Boy, what a transformation happens when Riesling is just allowed to sit on the lees for a few years, rather than bottled to be fresh and crisp. Here, you’ll find power, texture and depth in addition to incredible drinkability.
This is an excellent example of how natural winemaking with Riesling can work oh so well!
This Riesling delivers EVERYTHING you want it to. It has slight petrol aspects, minerality and unripe peach vibes.
A WINE OF THE WEEK... and a wine you need to try!!! Exceptional.
