Strasbourg Holiday Market recently took place in New York City to great holiday delight with toasts by Famile Hugel. Founded in 1570, it is fitting that Strasbourg’s Christkindelsmärik, the oldest Christmas market in France, celebrated 449 consecutive years of merriment in Manhattan’s oldest public park, Bowling Green.
Now as New Year’s Eve approaches there is even more reason to celebrate.
Since 1639, the Hugel family has maintained their successful Alsace wine business and made it one of the finest in the world. Currently managed by the 12th and 13th generations of the family, Famile Hugel maintains the estate where production averages 100,000 cases per year. The second driest region in France, Alsace has a unique climate that enables the grapes to ripen slowly producing a well-balanced wine. It is a perfect match that will bring joy and bliss to your New Years’ Eve celebration.
Hugel wines have a widely recognized yellow label that expresses the pure character of each grape variety and specific terroir. There is no need for added wood or sweetening due to the natural beauty of the composition.
Favorites to add to your party include Pinot Blanc Classic with a great refreshing taste. The Pinot Gris Classic has a powerful impact and will waken your taste buds with delight. Hugel Riesling Classic is perfect for a toast as midnight approaches with its elegant structure. And Hugel Classic carries the true beautiful essence and legacy of the estate overall.
Here is to celebrating your new year and the new decade in style.
