Famille Hugel Gewurztraminer Estate 750ml

The first highlights and heavy legs announce that this is going to be a very powerful wine. And the complex, intense, and profound aromas do nothing to dispel that impression: musk, candied quince, grilled orange zest, marmalade, acacia honey... The immediate impression given by the flavor of the property’s Gewürztraminers is always their sense of fullness, and this is a wine that sets out its stall with a certain elegance. On the palate, it is constant and harmonious, creamy, and full; the flavor hangs around for a while, as is typical of wines from the heavy soils of the Riquewihr. The harmonious and elegant final note is moderately acidic and remarkable for its refined and noble bitterness.
