Heitlinger 2020 Pinot Noir Reserve Tiefenbach
Hailing from young vines in their 1er and Grosse Lagen, the gain in finesse and authority is palpable. The inclusion of 30% of the stems with the juice imparts a structure and “green” note that will please all aficionados of old-fashioned burgundy. This wine is at the beginning of a long and promising life. It is an absolute bargain.

Other Vineyard Details | As in Burgundy, the chalky hills formed millions of years ago in a very confined space offer ideal conditions for white and red Burgundy vines and produce an independent. |
Notes from the Producer: The grapes come from young, organically cultivated vineyards in prime locations.
Significantly reduced use of wood, slight reduction, a taut and drinkable
acidity and a surprisingly dense structure for the youthfulness of the
vines guarantee a perfect addition to the Heitlinger range. Placed just below
the GGs, they represent a distinctive and very individual style
