Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Oldest cellar dates back to 1551, with rows of oak wine casks, over one hundred years old, crafted by the forefathers of the present generation of Hugels. The oldest cask in the world still in use: the Sainte Caterine, a capacity of 8,800 litres, built in 1715, the year Louis XIV died. Aromas of fruit & citrus aromas. Palate stone & tropical flavors, citrus notes, vivid acidity, medium finish. Nice! — 6 years ago

The characteristic aromas of raisins, brown sugar and dried fruits leap from the nose, while orange peel and notes of wood are found on the palate. There’s a wonderful acidity, so don’t think you can only sip it - try pairing it with dinner like our forefathers did.

No Guigal or Chave yet pays a nice tribute to its forefathers. I think Marsanne is a misunderstood grape. Really extravagant nose, perfumed with full tropics in effect. Rich and oily. Green almond, orange blossom and beeswax. Great example of Marsanne. — 7 years ago

Complicated! My first try of Madeira. Mince pie in a glass. If it was like this one, I can see why the founding forefathers drank 50 bottles of Madeira after signing the Declaration of Independence. — 5 years ago
