The white 2020 La Pell Blanco Parcela el Vinyet is crafted from a 1.41-hectare vineyard planted in 1889, featuring a unique field blend of over ten grape varieties, including Trobat Blanc, Hebén, Sumoll Blanc, Macabeu, Xarel.lo, and more. The grapes, harvested at three different ripeness stages, were destemmed, barely crushed, and fermented with skins in clay tinajas for four months, undergoing malolactic fermentation. The wine matured in a tinaja, a 500-liter acacia barrel, and glass demijohns, some developing a flor yeast layer. The result is a delicate, floral, and distinctly Mediterranean wine with notes of underbrush and fennel. It offers moderate ripeness and alcohol, showcasing complexity, elegance, and freshness with very tasty flavors and an almost salty finish. Austere and mineral, it is strict and straight, making it a remarkable and nuanced wine

The first traces of the Hugel family in Alsace can be traced back to the XVth century. Some two centuries later, Hans Ulrich Hugel settled in Riquewihr, which had been devastated by the terrible Thirty Years War. In 1639 he was made a freeman of the city and soon took charge of the very powerful Corporation of Winegrowers. In 1672 his son built a fine house in the Rue des Cordiers, and over the doorway was carved the family crest which was the origin of the company’s logo still used today.
