Riesling was grown in the Famille Hugel's famous Schoelhammer plot which is the finest vineyard slope of Riquewihr, historically known as the Grand Cru Schoenenbourg. 

2014 was a remarkable vintage for Riesling with long ageing potential and only 3148 bottles were produced.

Expect notes or candied lime, orange peel, honey, sweet almond and ginger spice alongside chamomile, yellow flowers and blossoms. On the palate the wine is dry with vibrant acidity and minerality that caries through to a long finish.

Terroir

Most of the hard work it takes to produce quality wine happens in the vinyard. The soil, the climatic conditions, the aspect, the bodies of water and many more factors, collectively knwon as "terroir" can influence the flavour of wine and give wine distint minerality, depth and character.
