Weingut Mann | Rheinhessen, Germany
Andi Mann
Founded in the historic wine village of Eckelsheim in Rheinhessen, Weingut Mann carries a legacy rooted in the Mann family’s involvement in viticulture since 1699. Today the estate is led by Andi Mann.
Covering around ten hectares of diverse soils that includes sand, limestone, porphyry, and volcanic influences, the vineyards are farmed organically and with biodynamic principles in mind. Hand harvesting and careful attention to biodiversity reflect Andi’s belief that the health of the vineyard should drive every bottle.
In the cellar, Andi favours minimal intervention: spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts, long ageing in large oak barrels, and wines bottled without fining or filtration to capture the character of the site and vintage. Across his range of wines are sessionable rosés, fresh whites and expressive reds. These wines are celebrated for their clarity, mineral energy, and sense of place.
