A great wine for laying down with a complex and subtle character.
The golden color with brilliant highlights is immediately captivating and reveals a great wine.
The complex nose evokes ripe, almost candied fruit, delicate notes of breadcrumbs, and a subtle mineral character.
The wine is full-bodied on the palate despite its decidedly dry balance, and the minerality extends into the finish, offering remarkable persistence.
In its youth, the Grand Cru Hengst wine is quite in accordance with its name, it has an untamed character (Hengst means stallion). Bottle-ageing softens, refines and tames it. It will astonish gourmets and connoisseurs by its ageing potential.
