"Enjoy all the expertise of the sublime Alheit estate in this accessible cuvée, considered delicious, disarmingly pure, and remarkable!"
"Hereafter Here 2023 presents a bouquet of disarming purity, with aromas of yellow plum, candle wax, and a hint of crushed stone, all deliciously defined and concentrated. The palate is very well balanced, with an electric line running from start to finish. Lively flavors unfold in the mouth, with notes of grapefruit peel and a generous touch of ginger towards the finish. This is a remarkable Hereafter Here. 2025-2035" (Vinous 2024)

About wine:
Much more smoky and reduced on the nose than the 2022. It is much more restrained by taut acidity and iron-like savory notes. Bread, bee pollen, saffron, and cooked rice. I would hold it for at least a few years. 2026-2032
