A beautifully- balanced, contained wine. Only 14%, which is virtually unheard of these days. Nose has bright black raspberry fruit and some dry gravel. A wee hint of iodine. In the mouth it’s lean but flavorful. The opposite of jammy, the flavors and clingy but buoyed by surprising acids. Some tannins for structure. Should age nicely for a few more years.

Relatively light from a body and color perspective, but quite austere. Lots of raspberry aromas with hints of wet stones, mint and blood. Bright red berry fruit flavors with and earthy finish. Mouth watering acidity.

Found it surprisingly thin and light. Nice fruit and enjoyable, but... for heitz, I was expecting a bit more.
