Closed and stony on the nose, barely giving an inch, just a whisper of lemon zest before it retreats. On the palate, that lemon sharpens into something almost electric: pure, cutting, dense, driven deep into Triassic sandstone. The 1959 vines from the Heisse Wanne parcel deliver a wine that doesn't reach upward but bores downward, coiling tighter around its mineral core with every sip. Needs serious time.
