Hugel Classic Gewürztraminer 2022

From the historic Famille Hugel estate in Riquewihr, Alsace, the Classic Gewürztraminer 2022 is a vibrant white showcasing the region’s aromatic prowess. Crafted from 100% Gewürztraminer, sourced from clay and limestone vineyards, it’s hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel. This wine captures the 2022 vintage’s freshness with a pale gold hue and lush complexity, reflecting Hugel’s 13-generation legacy.

Winemaking Process

Hugel’s traditional approach defines this wine. The 2022 vintage undergoes gentle pressing and cool fermentation in stainless steel to preserve aromatic intensity. No malolactic fermentation ensures crisp acidity, while minimal intervention highlights the grape’s natural exuberance, creating an off-dry Gewürztraminer with balanced richness and elegance.
