The Riesling Hugel Vendange Tardive is a rare and precious cuvée from a carefully selected late harvest, emblematic of the Hugel family’s expertise. This wine reveals delicate aromas of candied citrus, white flowers, honey, and subtle mineral nuances on the nose. On the palate, it seduces with its perfect balance between sweetness and freshness, with a silky texture and a long, refined finish. Produced according to the strict rules of Alsatian late harvests, this wine fully expresses the richness and complexity of its terroir. It is the ideal accompaniment to delicate dishes such as foie gras, noble fish, or fruity desserts, for an elegant and memorable tasting.

Domaine Hugel is a legendary Alsace vineyard, synonymous with excellence and tradition. For nearly 400 years, this family estate has produced wines that embody the soul and richness of the Alsatian terroir. Passed down from father to son for twelve generations, the Hugel family passionately cultivates noble grape varieties such as Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and Pinot Gris.

The estate covers 30 hectares of vines located on the best slopes of Riquewihr, most of which are classified as Grand Cru, complemented by 110 hectares of vineyard partners. Each bottle reflects ancestral know-how and a modern approach to winemaking, combining precision, elegance, and purity.

Hugel white wines are true works of art: mineral Rieslings, expressive Gewurztraminers, and harmonious Pinot Gris. Their dry, unpretentious style highlights the grape variety’s distinctive character and the finesse of the Alsatian climate. Their vintages are equally suited to aperitifs, fine dining, or cellaring.

A pioneer of Late Harvests and Selections of Noble Grains, Hugel helped establish the strictest French AOC regulations for these exceptional wines. The estate’s historic cellars house century-old tuns, including the famous “Sainte Catherine” barrel dating from 1715, still in use today.

Hugel wines are perfect for lovers of fine wines and those wishing to discover the best of Alsace in a bottle. An iconic house that combines tradition, innovation, and impeccable quality, recognized in more than 100 countries around the world.
