Hillinger HILL 2 2023 12,5% Vol. 0,75l

Hillinger HILL 2 2023 is a sophisticated Austrian white wine that combines the modern style of Hillinger with depth, precision and elegance. This characterful cuvee of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Chardonnay comes from organic cultivation and stands for uncompromising selection and elaborate ageing, which gives the wine structure and exceptional complexity. The limestone-dominated vineyards provide a clear minerality that forms the foundation of this Burgenland white wine.

The vinification follows a particularly sophisticated concept: spontaneous fermentation in used Burgundian barrique barrels, followed by full lees ageing and long fine lees ageing for a total of around 24 months. The cuvee then matures further in new and used barriques, whereby the use of wood remains present but deliberately discreet. This careful ageing gives the Hillinger HILL 2 its depth, its calm power and a storage potential of five to eight years. With 12.5% alcohol, this Sauvignon Blanc Chardonnay is precise, balanced and characterized by great inner tension.
