Grossi Laüe Riesling Hugel 2015 is a distinguished Riesling from the Alsace region. Sourced from select Grand Cru vineyards, this wine showcases the 2015 vintage`s early ripeness, resulting in concentrated aromas and flavours. It exhibits a pale gold hue, with notes of ripe stone fruit, lemon zest and a pronounced mineral backbone. The palate offers a structured experience, featuring a high acidity that enhances its longevity and complexity.

Vinous
Luminous straw-green. Captivating aromas of green apple, white stone fruit, lemon verbena, gin and powdered stone. Then rich, round and deep, showing ripe acidity and a soft peachy quality on a long finish that is further complicated by hints of licorice and bitter orange peel. Made from 30-year-old vines in the heart of the Schoenenbourg grand cru (without doubt one of Alsace’s top 10 Riesling sites) on a very homogenous tract of soil. This tastes so round it almost doesn’t seem like a wine from Hugel (an estate known for piercing, very dry, fresh wines; this reminded me a bit of the 2011s made here). This wine is a first for Hugel, as it is their first wine ever to carry a grand cru’s name on the label.Ian d'Agata1st April 2018
