Hailing from the deep Austrian north of Italy, Manni is making whites that rank amongst Italy's finest - and they are extraordinarily affordable. We have never tasted a Müller-Thurgau as good as this! It is multi-layered with herbs and jasmine winding through slopes of citric apple and mineral. It is so clean, pure and driven, and extraordinarily elegant. This wine is produced in very small volumes and if you love Austrian whites and Riesling, start following the mighty Manni now!
“Alpine and airy, like a fresh burst of chilling wind blowing through a thicket of pines, the 2022 Müller-Thurgau Sass Rigais comes to life in the glass. Its aromatics unfold slowly yet hold the attention firm, as hints of chlorophyll and mint complicate crisp green apple and stone dust. Deeply textural, this opens with a balanced inner sweetness quickly contrasted by saline minerals and a core of brisk acidity as tart orchard fruits cascade throughout. The 2022 finishes long and staining, with a youthful concentration and salty intensity that lingers on. In a word, breathtaking.” 94 points - Eric Guido, Vinous
"Manni Nössing is one of Italy’s most talented winemakers. In fact, all his wines are so good that it’s virtually impossible to pick the best of the lot, or even a favorite..." - Ian d'Agata, Vinous
