Alcohol: 12.4 % vol.

The vines grow on the western slope of the Grand Cru Hengst near Wintzenheim, on a steep, late-warming site with Oligocene, iron-rich limestone and red marl. Despite the variety’s early ripening, the poor calcareous soils encourage pronounced acidity and freshness. The 2023 vintage matured slowly, but fermented relatively quickly and was made very dry; residual sugar is 0,6 g/l. The nose shows citrus fruit and restrained white fruit. The palate is precise, taut, salty and light to medium-bodied, with a long, dry finish and good ageing potential. Bottling took place in January 2025.
