✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hugel's Riesling Jubilee is a legendary dry white wine born from the prestigious, steep slopes of the Schoenenbourg Grand Cru overlooking Riquewihr. Originally created in 1939 to celebrate the Hugel family's tricentenary, this cuvée represents the pinnacle of Alsace Riesling. Historically, the Hugel family chose not to use the official 'Grand Cru' designation on their labels due to disagreements with the classification's boundaries, opting instead for the prestigious 'Jubilee' designation to signify their finest estate-grown fruit. The Schoenenbourg terroir, characterized by fertile marl, dolomite, and gypsum-rich clay soils, imparts a profound, crystalline minerality and intense structural power to the wine. Vinified in historic, large century-old oak casks with minimal intervention, this Riesling is celebrated for its laser-like acidity, rich texture, and a complex aromatic profile that evolves from vibrant citrus and white flowers into deep, petrol-infused mineral complexity over decades.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Famille Hugel blev grundlagt i 1639 i den maleriske middelalderlandsby Riquewihr og er et af de mest hæderkronede og berømte vinhuse i Alsace. Vingården har været drevet uafbrudt gennem mere end tolv generationer af Hugel-familien og forener historiske familieejede vinmarker med nøje udvalgte druer for at hylde regionens alsidige terroir. Hugel spillede en afgørende rolle i udformningen af de officielle regler for Alsaces ædle senhøstkategorier, Vendanges Tardives og Sélection de Grains Nobles. Vinhuset nyder international anerkendelse for sine vine præget af renhed, elegance og et enestående lagringspotentiale. Her fremstilles skelsættende tørre og søde fortolkninger af Alsaces ædle druesorter – især Riesling, Gewurztraminer og Pinot Gris – som traditionstro vinificeres på over hundrede år gamle egefoudres.
