*pic of the white wines* One of the wines I supplied for an annual lunch hosting (co-host this time), along with the 2018 Morlet LpD. 2009 was the last year Hugel used “Jubilee” before moving to “Grossi Laüe”. This is Hugel’s “Grand Cru” selection from their Schoenenbourg vineyard.

Undeniably Alsatian Riesling in the glass from first whiff…floral, minerals, and only slightly TDN (petrol) aromatic driven, but noticeable power. Vintage (and age) has helped this reach a fantastic drinking window where acidity and flavor profile are in balance and not fighting each other. Ripe herb-crusted yellow fruits alongside limestone/mineral in a powerful profile. There is warmth to this vintage and it makes an appearance in how fleshy the wine is (which is great). At almost 16yrs, there is no rush, but this drinking window is exceptional. — 3 months ago

Delicious. Would’ve preferred a bit more age on this, to balance out the sweetness… but ~7 years is enough to make it interesting. Paired incredibly well with the Golden Eye Snapper course at ATOMIX. I look forward to trying a 15-years old vintage; great QPR. — 6 months ago

Classic for this producer. Dry 14.5%. Oily and viscous. Good acidity. Touch bitter, apricot, hint roses. Just for asian food - really. So fruity the perception is - it is sweet. — 8 months ago

A very different and distinct nose... some sauternes aromas along with honey and spring flowers. A rich body with a slight honey sweetness. Alsatian Adventure private tasting. — 3 years ago

Thought we had the last bottle a year ago but realized we had one more. Really very nice - a sort of time capsule wine, taking you back nearly two decades with the depth of amber color and honeyed flavor. So well balanced, with the secondary round fruit giving way to nice acids (more than I recall on the bottle a year ago). Fun one for sure. — 9 months ago

Opulent and hedonistic nose and entry. Wonderfully balanced feinherb/demi-sec mouthfeel on the midpalate and finish.
Complex and delightful wine, showing better on day 2.
