Dr Heger’s wines show increasing finesse each year, with the 2023 Vorderer Winklerberg Spätburgunder standing out in particular. The site is very warm, with dark volcanic soils facing south and southwest, interspersed with heat-retaining dry-stone walls. It has produced juicy, ripe fruit with dark cherries and blackberries, fine-grained tannins and a silky texture. The use of just under a third new barrels adds well-balanced spice, with notes of toast and coffee.
