HUGEL RIESLING CLASSIC - 2009

100% Riesling from Alsace, France.

TASTING NOTES:

Golden-green color with peachy-apple aromas and flavors. Lots of minerality and citrus. Tart with a decent amount of acidity. Relatively dry with just a hint of both sweetness underneath. Soft and smooth texture.

SCORE & RECOMMENDATION:

87 PTS

Great entry to mid-level Riesling with good aromatics. This is more of a food wine than one you might approach to sip. Retails for around $24 so it might be somewhat pricey for what it delivers.
