The Hugel family has been making quintessential Alsace wines in the region for 5 generations. They have acquired (and striven for) a reputation to quality production that is richly deserved. Their Gewurztraminer is a rich, spicy, honeyed wine that is a perfect match for east Asian food and curry dishes.

The wines in the ‘Estate’ range epitomise the true expression of the great terroirs of Riquewihr and  come entirely from selected plots on the family estate.

Tasting Notes:

Color: A young and intense lemon and straw yellow colour with numerous pale green and lime-tree foliage highlights.

Aroma: Sophisticated, expressive, intense aroma of perfectly ripe Gewürztraminer grapes; strongly scented yet delicate and refined. Hints of fresh roses, lily, passion fruit, litchi, mango, cardamom, orange blossom, freshly baked cake, acacia honey.

Full in body while leaving an explosion of taste in the finish; the superb after-taste is rich in spontaneity and sincerity.
