Hugel Gewurztraminer (75cl, 14%)

Hugel Gewurztraminer is a dry, aromatic Alsatian white wine made from 100% Gewürztraminer grapes. Produced by Famille Hugel, it is bottled at approximately 14% ABV in a 750ml format. The grapes are hand-harvested and pressed by gravity without mechanical pumping. Fermentation takes place at 18–24°C, followed by racking, natural clarification over winter and light filtration before bottling under DIAM cork. Rose petal, jasmine, lychee and Mirabelle plum open the nose, with ginger, Szechuan pepper and hawthorn blossom beneath. The palate brings yellow peach, mango, tangerine peel and green mango, with mineral undertones and a touch of honey. The finish is medium-long, with lychee, Turkish delight, anise, chamomile and faint smokiness.
