The aroma of the 2021 Heiligenstein is extremely precise and layered: white peach, apricot, lemon and lime zest, grapefruit, a delicate hint of mango, white flowers, and a distinct minerality of wet stone and flint. On the palate, the wine is dry, intense, yet elegant – with a very precise acidity that provides a "vertical" backbone. The fruit here is more citrus and stone fruit, but the most important aspect is the structure: stony tension, salinity, and a long, almost "chalky" finish. The 2021 vintage is considered one of the best in recent years – very clean, concentrated, and long-lived.
About the manufacturer
Weingut Hirsch is a family-owned winery in the Kamptal region, where several generations of the Hirsch family have been cultivating grapes, believing that great wine is born not in the cellar, but in the vineyard. The current winemaker, Johannes Hirsch, works on biodynamic winemaking principles, considering each plot unique and striving to reveal its character as precisely as possible. The winery avoids excessive intervention – nature is allowed to dictate the rhythm, and the goal of winemaking is not to create a "perfect" wine, but to convey the history of a specific place, its soil, and the distinctiveness of the vintage.
