Winery Dr. Heger Gras im Ofen Weißer Burgunder 2017

The "Grass im Ofen' vineyard is one of the best plots for white Burgundy varieties in Germany. The reason for this is its very special location. Located on the sun-drenched Winklerberg, full ripeness is virtually guaranteed, while at the same time a ridge that provides shade in the morning – just like the edge of the forest above the plot – ensures coolness and thus preserves elegance, complexity and finesse. The 2017 Grass im Ofen is brightly fruity with citrus notes – some of which are candied – and hints of fully ripe yellow apples. Its typical salty-cool minerality is unmistakable, providing a counterpoint to the warm fruitiness. One of the rare Pinot Blancs from Germany of true greatness.
