Andi Mann - Weissburgunder, PurPur - 2021
Opens with a nuanced nose of white peach and citrus paired with a delicate minerality and white floral notes, ending in a long and balanced finish. Pinot Blanc is a super underrated variety that describes sense of place and winemaking with such elegance that only a few other varieties can, like Chardonnay or Riesling.
