MTH 2022 Jura as free-run juice

as free-run juice

an exceptional wine made from 60-year-old organic Cabernet Franc vines grown in limestone and clay-limestone soil

honey and a nutty edge that comes from the spirit

whose ungrafted Chardonnay is still standing

unfolding slowly rather than all at once

MTH 2022 Jura as free-run juiceMTH is Mller Thurgau, a grape nobody takes seriously, off vines sixty years old, which is where Andi Weigand starts making his point. He farms ten Naturland certified hectares at Iphofen in Franken and treats the vineyard as a single organism rather than a set of rows. This is pressed on a basket press from the 1920s and fermented in sixty year old oak, old wood and old vines left to get on with it. Unfiltered, no sulphur added. Pear and white
