Wine By Nine

White Wine by Hugel from Alsace, France - regions. Delicate, subtle and well built, it makes an excellent aperitif because, although nicely rounded, it is also refreshing. The perfect all-purpose dry white wine. Shows great minerality and intensity for an entry-level wine. Pencilly aromas, with an element akin to graphite, but also citrus and green-apple and lemon mixed with stony, minerally notes. It's only medium-bodied, but the finish is long and almost painfully intense. Wine Enthusiast 90 points

White Wine by Lucien Albrecht from Alsace, France - regions. This wine, made 100% from Pinot Blanc, is unoaked and fresh with a soft dry fruit. It is the wine to drink at home as an aperitif or with all casual family meals. Picked when very mature, harmonious with a lively spring finesse.
