The information below applies to each unit in the pack
The Hugel family are pioneers of winemaking in Alsace, tracing back to 1639.
The business retains family values and character, and is currently managed by the 12th and 13th consecutive generations of the family.
Famille Hugel owns an estate of 30 hectares of prime sites in Riquewihr, more than half classified as Grand Cru. It also buys grapes from a further 100 hectares farmed by partner growers in similar clay/limestone dominated terroirs, which strongly mark the style of Famille Hugel wines. All grapes are, and will always be hand-picked.
Pinot Gris is truly dry and gastronomic which reveals itself at the table! Rich and rounded, although still dry, it is ideal with terrines, white meats and fish in sauce. Of all the Alsace varieties, Pinot Gris has the greatest ageing potential.
On the palate it has a soft and silky caress, with a fruity balance and elegant long-lasting aromas leaving behind a wonderful sense of refreshment. It has a perfect character for gastronomic meals with sea or river fish in sauces; fresh-water shrimp; lobster or spicy sauces, lamb curries, red mullet in curcuma, monkfish in saffron, and is also an ideal accompaniment for poultry, pheasant and other white meats. Veal chops with wild mushrooms, game-bird terrine or duck foie gras.
