Famille Hugel Classic Gewurztraminer 2023 is a distinctive expression of one of Alsace's most emblematic grape varieties. Hugel's Gewürztraminer is intensely aromatic yet deliberately made in a dry style, combining floral perfume, exotic fruit and subtle spice with freshness and precision.
The grapes are sourced from predominantly clay-rich vineyards around Riquewihr and south of Colmar, where the slow-ripening Gewürztraminer benefits from cool nights. The grapes are exclusively hand harvested and transported in small containers before being gently pressed by gravity without pumping.
For the 2023 vintage, fermentation took place in temperature-controlled barrels or vats at 18–24°C, followed by a single racking and natural clarification over winter. The wine was lightly filtered before bottling and further aged in Hugel's cellars. The 2023 vintage was dry and healthy, and Hugel considers it among the great vintages of the estate.
