Hugel & Fils Gentil 2005

|
BN#188578 |
The Hugel family's Gentil has become the joyful, convivial wine whose arrival is always awaited with impatience in the spring that follows each vintage. The 2005 has a pure, fresh bouquet, particularly fruit-driven and floral, engaging and expressive, flattering and affectionate. On the palate it is dry, with a lively, youthful freshness that makes it agreeably refreshing, and an appealingly scented finish. It stimulates the taste buds and makes the perfect wine to enjoy with friends on every simple, unceremonious occasion.
