Sa va 2023

Wine description for Sa va 2023 from Heinrich

Colour & appearance

Brilliant, pale yellow with lively green reflections that herald the youth and freshness of this exceptional Traminer interpretation.

Nose

A fascinating aromatic profile that immediately attracts attention. The precise reduction reveals mineral flint notes and a striking salty citrus component. Behind this, layers of dried quince and juicy pears unfold, while subtle herbal nuances and a distinguished oxidative note add intellectual complexity. The smoky spice lends the bouquet an almost meditative depth.

Palate

On the palate, the Sa va 2023 shows impressive structural clarity with precise acidity. The Salty minerality forms the backbone of this wine and drives the flavours forward with remarkable linearity. The extract-rich core offers substance, while the finely dosed phenols give the wine texture without compromising its elegance. The finish is persistent, with a lingering saline component that inevitably entices you to take another sip.

General information

This Gelbe Traminer from Burgenland represents Heinrich's biodynamic philosophy in its purest form. The amphora fermentation and 11-month yeast ageing give the wine a fascinating Jurassic dimension, while the limestone soils provide the distinctive minerality. With 13% alcohol and subtle residual sweetness, this is a precisely balanced work of art.

Food pairing suggestions

The salty minerality and phenolic texture predestine this wine for grilled sea bass with lemon butter, Scallops with cauliflower puree or Mature soft cheeses with quince jelly. Also with Asian dishes a remarkable accompaniment with subtle flavour.

Special features

A wine of remarkable originality that epitomises the renaissance of Austrian natural wines at the highest level. Heinrichs Sa va 2023 is a Limited edition gemthat skilfully blurs the boundaries between traditional winemaking and modern interpretation. The amphora vinification gives it a timeless quality reminiscent of great Jura wines, but with an unmistakably Austrian identity. A fascinating debut work that has collector's value.
