More About Weingut Andres Pfalz Spätburgunder vom Kalkmergel Bio

From the limestone and marl soils of the Pfalz, Weingut Andres’ Spätburgunder vom Kalkmergel is a Pinot Noir that trades power for precision, leaning into freshness, texture, and pure fruit.

Bright red cherry, wild strawberry, and raspberry sit at the centre of the wine, backed by subtle spice, dried herbs, and a gentle earthy note that gives it real character without weighing it down. The limestone-rich soils bring a fine mineral edge and a lifted freshness that keeps everything focused and energetic.

Organically farmed and handled with a light touch in the cellar, this is very much a modern German Pinot style: supple, elegant, and quietly confident. The tannins are soft, the acidity is bright, and the whole wine feels built around drinkability rather than extraction or oak.

There’s a lovely Burgundian influence to the wine, but it never feels like it’s trying to imitate somewhere else. Instead, it delivers that increasingly exciting combination of German precision and Pinot Noir charm.

Serve slightly cool with roast chicken, mushroom dishes, pork, or a good cheeseboard. Silky, vibrant, and seriously easy to enjoy.

Style: Winery

The Pfalz has always had the climate, the vineyards and the history. What it lacked for years was the confidence to stop looking over its shoulder at other wine regions. A new generation of growers has changed that, and Weingut Andres has become one of the clearest examples of why the region is now attracting so much attention.

Based in Deidesheim along the Mittelhaardt, arguably Germany's most prestigious stretch of vineyard land outside the Mosel, the estate is run by brothers Michael and Thomas Andres. Since taking over the family winery in 2015, they have transformed it into one of the leading voices of modern German wine. Organic farming, biodynamic principles and a hands-off approach in the cellar are all part of the picture, but they never feel like the point of the exercise. The wines come first.

What makes Andres particularly compelling is its embrace of both Riesling and the Burgundian varieties. Riesling remains the backbone of the estate, sourced from some of the Pfalz's most celebrated vineyards including Kieselberg, Ungeheuer and Idig. Alongside it sit increasingly impressive Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, wines that have helped establish the estate's reputation well beyond Germany. Burgundy is clearly an influence, but these wines never feel like imitations. The warmth, generosity and mineral backbone of the Pfalz remain firmly intact.

The vineyards stretch across an extraordinary range of soils, from red sandstone and limestone to loess and marl. Those differences are treated as something worth preserving rather than smoothing out. Fermentations are carried out with native yeasts, oak is used thoughtfully rather than prominently, and the cellar work is geared towards transparency rather than polish. The result is a range that feels remarkably articulate about where it comes from.

There's a confidence to these wines that reflects the wider evolution of the Pfalz itself. Twenty years ago, German wine conversations often began and ended with Riesling. Producers such as Andres have helped broaden that discussion. Whether it's a village-level Riesling, a finely judged Spatbergunder or a serious single-vineyard bottling, the common thread is clarity, texture and an impressive sense of place.
