Full-bodied, spicy and with a good length.
'Herrenreben' means 'the lords' vines' because this area once belonged to the lords of Ribeaupierre who already in the 15th century cultivated Pinot Noir here. At once stony, sandy and very rich in silica, this terroir produces Pinot Noir that is robust, concentrated and rich in aromas; suitable for ageing in oak barrels.
Tasting notes
- Black cherry red colour with garnet highlights
- Well-developed nose, with delicate vanilla notes at first, followed by aromas of small black fruits and spices (white pepper).
- Frank and fruity, it shows a good structure in the mouth with an intense and long aromatic expression, supported by silky tannins and a pleasant freshness.
Food and wine pairing
Ideal with both white and red meats, as well as game. Winemaker's notes (Sept 2023)

Domaine Schoenheitz
At the Domaine in Wihr-au Val, on the steep sides of the the vall茅e de Munster, the historical name for which, 'Val Saint-Gr茅goire', lives on in a sub-appellation for wines from all varieties of Pinot from this area. The soils are mostly granitic, and the wines pure and precise. Henri and Dominique Schoenheitz, both oenologists, took over the domaine in the 1980s, and have created the wines over a twenty-year period, establishing the domaine as an independent producer of wines of particular clarity and minerality. Their son Adrien is now very involved after returning in 2014 from various stints at great estates making wine across the globe including: Vieux Telegraph, Montus, Yealands and Torbreck.
