The vines stand at Heimbourg in Turckheim, on a steep site facing south-west to west. The shallow soil consists of Oligocene, calcareous marl and calcareous sandstone with iron-rich red sandstone components; the fractured bedrock allows deep rooting. Yields in 2023 were only 30 hl/ha due to coulure. Following a long fermentation, a dry wine was produced with 1,4 g/l residual sugar. It shows wet stones, citrus, anise, liquorice and menthol, with precise, lively acidity and a juicy, saline finish.
