2015 Kamanima, dry, 14% vol., Andre Macionga and Markus Schneider

At the beginning there are flavors that leave a leather-like impression. Characterized by fine red berries, this cuvee already has great character. Despite the youthful age of this wine, it is full-bodied, spicy and masculine. The longevity can be felt: In the future `Kamanima` will remain an impressive pleasure. On the palate, a delicate tartaric acid is present from the very beginning, and the bouquet is characterized by notes of Roterbete, rosemary and tobacco. In 2011, Andre Macionga first asked himself the question, `What would my own wine taste like?` The implications of this question were groundbreaking for him and shaped his later years. From year to year, cuvetia became an ever-growing passion for him. For the first time in 2017, he cuveted wines with four wineries. The cooperative work and the associated creative exchange with winemakers from different regions is very valuable to him; and always an act of inspiration. Thanks to this cooperation, he was able to realize his ideas. As a result, Andre Macionga Cuvee GmbH was founded. The cuvees that he was able to create so far are unique wines. They are clearly structured and have substance. Be enchanted by taste on the palate and sit down with these strong wines. You will discover many nuances and facets. Since 2006, Andre Macionga has been sommelier at the starred restaurant Tim Raue in Berlin.
