Descrizione

The Riesling Linea Grossi Laue of the Famille Hugel is born in Alsace, a region famous for the excellence of its white wines and for the richness of its terroir characterized by limestone soils and marls, ideal for the Riesling grape variety. This denomination fully enhances the aromatic potential and the typical mineral freshness of Alsace Riesling.

The wine stands out for its refined elegance, enhanced by a traditional aging that preserves vibrant acidity and olfactory complexity. On the nose, delicate aromas of citrus, white flowers, and a pleasant note of flint open up, while on the palate it reveals a balanced structure and a clear, fresh persistence, making it versatile and suitable for many occasions.

Perfect when paired with fish dishes, shellfish, or light white meats, the Riesling Linea Grossi Laue is a wine capable of telling the tradition and passion of the Famille Hugel, excellent interpreters of the rich Alsatian wine history.
