(12x75cl) 2012Wine Advocate (92)
A brilliant straw-yellow, almost golden color dresses the precisely clear, deep and elegantly aromatic 2012 Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec, which indicates a perfect ripeness and finesse of fruit along with some oriental spice aromas. Intense and very mineral on the palate, this highly elegant, finesse-full, dense, tightly woven and clearly chalky Chenin reveals a concentrated, powerful and thrilling finish with a long and complex, very stimulating salinity. This is a great Haut-Lieu for the next ten, maybe 50 years.Inc. GSTSG$817.28 -
(12x75cl) 2002Vinous (92)
Bright gold. Talc, orange zest, pear and white flowers on the nose, along with a touch of pungent herbs. Tangy, finely wrought citrus flavors are given depth and texture by notes of floral honey and bitter pear skin, with a hint of tarragon emerging on the back of the palate. Slow to unfold, but finishes with excellent clarity, lift and persistence. Like 2009 and 2005, 2002 is one of the great vintages here—a year when it was possible to produce all styles at a high level of quality.Inc. GSTSG$1,241.29 -

The 2017 Vouvray Le Mont Demi-Sec displays a beautifully pure, precise, flinty and crunchy bouquet of perfectly ripe and healthy fruits.

The 1997 Vouvray Moelleux Le Mont reveals a touch of gold to its otherwise straw color. It offers a nose of deeply honeyed chalk with hints of botrytis as well as a complex, quince, candied almond, and acacia blossom-flavored personality.

A beauty, with an inviting display of succulent yellow apple, green plum, pear, persimmon and quince flavors that ripples through the long finish, while light verbena, ginger and honeysuckle notes dart around.

The 2018 Vouvray Le Mont Moelleux is clear, deep, pure and flinty on the intense but fine and coolish-mineral nose. Very distinctive! Lush and intense but also pure, vital and tensioned on the palate, this elegant and seductive Le Mont offers a straightforward drive and a highly complex and energetic finish with grip and great mineral tension.

According to Sarah Hwang, 2022 marked “the earliest harvest—we started on the 7th of September and finished on the 17th of October.” Indeed, the 2022 Vouvray Le Mont Moelleux reflects the vintage’s warm conditions with a ripe, complex bouquet of pear, white peach, exotic fruits, kumquat and floral notes. Medium- to full-bodied, it is concentrated and structured yet retains a sense of poise and lift. A delicately fleshy core of fruit is framed by bright acidity, leading to a long, ethereal finish. This is an exquisite and precise wine, particularly impressive given the solar nature of the vintage. Residual sugar: 51 grams per liter.Inc. GSTSG$350.33 -

Pure, bright yellow with golden tinges. Very pure aromas and flavors of rose petal, lime, crystallized ginger and brown spices. Hints of smoked beef and aromatic herbs add nuance to the palate, complicating flavors of orange marmalade and spicy herbs. Finishes with excellent length and so much acidity it makes your teeth hurt. I couldn’t get over just how high in acid these 2014 Hugel Gewürzes seemed to be (Gewürz is a notoriously low-acid variety) and Marc Hugel told me that in fact, for no clear reason, these wines had more or less the same acidity levels as the 2010s (2010 is, along with 2008, one of the highest-acid vintages in Alsace memory).Inc.

(6x75cl) 2005Wine Advocate (97)
In its very early days, Hugel’s 2005 Gewurztraminer Selection de Grains Nobles is already truly noble! Orange marmalade, caramelized peach, spiced pear and yellow plum preserves, cinnamon and mint candies, roses, and honey and white raisin fill the nose. Spectacularly luscious and expansive on the palate, honeyed, silken-textured, and loaded with primary, vividly juicy fruit such as one seldom encounters in this grape variety much less at stratospheric ripeness, this fills ones head with sweet perfume and dreams of future vinous glory – if only you can give it at least twenty years. And if one must drink it today, despite considerable sweetness, this amazing Gewurztraminer already displays not just prodigious length and profundity of flavor – saline chalky mineral suggestions and deep smoked meat pungency lending a darker side to its performance – but elegance, poise, refinement, and remarkable lift and refreshment.Inc.

The golden-yellow colored 2014 Gewurztraminer Vendange Tardive is very clear, precise and elegant on the nose that represents a perfect selection of botrytis, but it's also a fruit-fly vintage that always causes a kind of irritation. Ripe peach and sage aromas intertwined with flinty notes on the intense nose lead to a palate that is rich, sweet and savory as well as elegant and saline, finishing highly stimulating despite the richness. Bottled with 11% stated alcohol and 94 grams per liter of residual sugar, this is a long-distance runner. Tasted at the domaine in April 2024.Inc. GSTSG$418.08 -

The 2014 Riesling Grossi Laüe is harvested from four parcels across the midslope of the marls of the Schoenenbourg Grand Cru. From a cool vintage, with a cool, rainy summer where the autumn made the vintage. This sends out only gentle notions of chamomile tincture with emerging highlights of clear honey but with an ethereal lift and a lovely smokiness that allows you to stash this way. The palate is serene, gorgeously smooth and emollient with its cooling, soothing, chamomile-scented, fresh gentleness. This is a Riesling like a caress, like a balm, while cooling, healing and soothing. The 2014 is long and understated, just about opening up but perfectly equipped to go the distance, a wine of equanimity and class. (Bone-Dry)Inc. GSTSG$706.82 -
Vinous (89-91)
Stony, complex nose features white flowers, mint, quinine, lemon and lime. Rich and dense, with a dusty sense of minerality. As stony as this riesling is, it not at all hard. Finishes very long, with a whiplash of flavor. This comes across as dryer than the Tradition even though it's carrying a few more grams of sugar (10, vs. 7, with the same 13.2% alcohol), due to its stronger mineral character and higher acidity. Will be long-lived.Inc. GSTSG$746.69 -

Hugel's 2014 Riesling Schoelhammer opens with a clear and remarkably fine and herbal bouquet that indicates perfectly ripe and concentrated fruit that is reminiscent of ripe mirabelles.

The finish is very long, stimulating and complex due to the remarkably fine saline acidity.
