Description
Hugel Alsace Gewürztraminer Classic is a white wine of the Gewürztraminer variety produced by the Hugel & Fils winery, in the Alsace region of France. The Gewürztraminer variety is the emblematic grape from Alsace. Its slow ripening in climates with cool nights, like those in the region, enhances its varietal expression.Hugel Alsace Gewürztraminer Classic comes from select plots located around Riquewihr, composed of clay and limestone soils. The grapes are harvested by hand and transported in small containers, and when they reach the cellar they are gently pressed and the must is racked by gravity, without any mechanical intervention. The must ferments at controlled temperatures and clarifies naturally with the cold of winter. The wine is lightly filtered in the spring before bottling. The bottles are sealed using a special stopper, the DIAM cork, which prevents the possibility of contamination.
The grapes for this Hugel Alsace Gewürztraminer Classic are the product of a fresh and long vintage that has resulted in a unique, highly delicate dry wine with an incomparable intensity.
