Heiss Acacia-Barrique Sauvignon Blanc Beerenauslese 2001, 375 ml

“Acacia wood gives this wine a lot of youth as well as acacia blossom and honey aromas. This is a very good and fascinating wine. The combination of the acacia wood barrel and the Sauvignon Blanc grape makes it a very elegant and interesting wine. Very clean, very elegant.” -Vintner Franz Heiss

This 2001 Beerenauslese from Franz Heiss was aged 12 months in small barrels made from acacia wood.

Grapes
