Nov 3rd, 2021Typical Hugel Riesling still going very strong after 12 years in my cellar. Ideal with a Niçoise salad for lunch in 34 degrees weather.

Oct 20th, 2018From a restaurant list. Nice medium gold color. Heavy in the glass. Beautiful bouquet of apricot, lemon, flowers and stone. Reminds me instantly of Clos St Hune. With air the power built. Good finish. Was empty before it had all the air it needed.

Oct 17th, 2017Dry, almost tannic moment on the mid-palate which is then moistened by a honeyed note and finishes with brilliant mineral acidity.

2 people found it helpfulJan 9th, 2013Third time I’ve had this wine and I still adore everything about it. Loves air. Pale lemon/green with gummy worm aromatics. Powerful and dry at 13.5% abv. The age is just starting to show as the fruit character mellows. Rich, lees, neutral oak. I want crab cakes or Thai chile chicken wings.
