CHARACTERISTICS
  • TypeVino bianco fermo
  • Location France
  • Grapes Gewurztraminer 23.2%, Muscat 16.8%, Riesling 26.3%, Pinot Gris 8.7%, Sylvaner 17.8%, Pinot Blanc 7.2%
  • Sensations Colour: The colour is that of a young, lively and energetic wine revealing an intense crystalline sparkle illuminated by lighter leaf green and straw yellow tones. Aroma: The nose presents fruity notes of grape seeds from perfectly ripe grapes. The finish is vibrant and mineral, reminiscent of limestone and white truffle, evoking the unmistakable presence of a unique landscape. Taste: On the palate it offers a long, persistent carnet of indulgent flavours and is a true dry Riesling. Distinct, generous, full-bodied, juicy, extraordinarily well-balanced, of the highest quality. The finish is dense, aromatic and complex.
  • Vinification The grapes are harvested in small tanks at the press, which is filled by gravity, without any pumping or other mechanical assistance. After pressing, decanting lasts for a few hours, then fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled barrels (18 °C). The wine is decanted only once, before natural clarification during the winter. The following spring, the wine is filtered through a light filter, just before bottling, and the bottles are then stored in the cellars for about 10 years before release.

    Gentil AOC Alsace 2022
  • It is called Gentil, AOC Alsace. It is offered by Famille Hugel and is the fruit of a complex blend of grapes typical of the region. Riesling at 26.3%, Gewürztraminer at 23.2%, Muscat at 16.8%, Sylvaner at 17.8%, Pinot Gris at 8.7% and Pinot Blanc at 7.2%. The grapes are harvested by hand and brought, in small baskets, to the press, which is filled by gravity, without any mechanical help. After pressing, the must is left to clarify by decantation for a few hours. This is followed by fermentation, which in this case takes place in barriques at a controlled temperature. At the end of this phase, the wine is racked once before natural clarification during the winter. The following spring, it is lightly filtered and bottled. In the glass, one discovers a wine characterised by a lively, brilliant colour with an intense sparkle and evident greenish reflections. The nose has fruity notes, with a mineral and vibrant finish reminiscent of limestone and white truffle. In the mouth, it is long and persistent, with a pleasantly dry taste, extraordinarily well balanced. A wine of excellent workmanship, its finish is dense, aromatic and complex. To be drunk young, it is perfect with aperitifs and delicate fish dishes.

    Famille Hugel is an 'iconic' winery in its territory. For centuries they have dedicated themselves to the study and classification of terroir. Their attention to the vineyard is maniacal and is evidenced by the fact that they limit the production of each individual wine to a maximum of 20-30 rows within a vineyard. This makes Famille Hugel one of the most authoritative zoning authorities in Alsace. It is no coincidence that every year, geologists and terroir scholars travel to Alsace to enrich their knowledge by consulting with Hugel. Over time, this aptitude for classification has enabled the Alsatian company to create a reputation for absolute excellence, which has now lasted for 13 generations.
