2022 was a warm year in the Pfalz, with sufficiently cool nights, allowing these Rhône-origin grapes to ripen fully while retaining vibrant acidity and aromatic balance. Marsannier is an experimental Knipser wine, so its style is more focused on texture and complexity than on the classic regional template. The aroma reveals ripe apricots, peaches, pears, citrus, and notes of honey and white flowers, along with a light touch of toasted oak and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry, medium-to-full-bodied, with a creamy, slightly oily texture, yet maintaining a lively acidity that balances the fruit richness. The finish is long, gently fruity, with a subtle spiciness and a sense of warm climate ripeness.

About the manufacturer

Knipser Winery, located in the village of Laumersheim in the Pfalz region, is considered one of the leaders of the qualitative revolution in German winemaking. The family's history in this region began in the 19th century, but the estate gained its current recognition in the second half of the 20th century when it was decided to focus on smaller yields, higher quality, and an international style. Knipser was one of the first wineries in Pfalz to seriously work with Burgundy varieties – Grauburgunder, Weissburgunder, Spätburgunder – as well as Bordeaux varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, thus expanding the boundaries of the region's possibilities. Today, it is one of the most highly regarded private wineries in Germany, holding the highest national ratings.
The winery is run by the Knipser family – brothers Volker and Werner Knipser took over the business, and today the younger generation is also actively involved. Their philosophy is based on precision in the vineyard and patience in the cellar: smaller yields, hand-picking, selective fermentation, and aging in oak barrels when the wine's structure requires it. They strive for a balance between German acidic precision and Burgundian elegance – so that the wines are structured, long-lived, yet clearly reflect the soils of Pfalz and the ripeness imparted by a warmer climate.
