Born in Leiwen in the Mosel in 1980, Andreas Bender first learnt about soil, viticulture and terroir from his father, a vine propagator, and made his own wine when he was just thirteen years old. While on the one hand his ideas are very modern, when it comes to winemaking itself, Andreas is very committed to tradition: he believes careful cellar work, simple winemaking methods and natural fermentation.

100% Weissburgunder - also known as Pinot Blanc - this comes from 30 year-old vines on steep slopes with slate soils. A wine with great delicacy, a round, silky mouthfeel and a soft stone fruit core with great sharpness on the finish.
