Hugel Pinot Noir Grossi Laüe Clos du Pflostig 2013

Smoke, parsley root and dark earth open things up, a savory, cool-climate character that belies the August heat that shaped this vintage. A decade in, it's hitting its stride: taut red fruit, silky tannins with real snap, and a freshness that keeps everything lifted and bright. Long, focused, and in no hurry to fade.
