Still quite smooth

Floral notes meld into a core of red/purplish fruit

This was phenomenal from barrel and remains so

a stony sensation which is so typical of Chablis makes this a round and pure wine

The rich and substantial palate is supported by a sympathetic streak of acidity that still allows the wine to remain predominately round in texture

2014 | Hugel & Fils Riesling 'Grossi Laue' | Alsace Mario Schiopetto Still quite smoothRich and concentrated, with an unctuous mix of peach and lime curd lined with warm hay and subtle honey, this is silky, almost oily, on the palate. Impressively fresh and pure, given its bottle age. Shows invigorating spices, acidity and mineral energy, which bring laser focus and form through the long, bitter edged finish.
