Henry Fuchs

Paul Fuchs says, “Two thousand twenty-three was similar to 2022, hot and dry, except that 2023 followed a dry winter, so dryness showed, even in clay soils.” He elaborates, “But, we had rain just in time—in the second half of August—which saved the vintage. Nature was green again.” Fuchs also explains that he observed “two different kinds of vineyard,” one where vines shut down due to dryness and stopped accumulating sugar, and the other where fruit was able to continue maturing. The long harvest period began on September 5 for Crémant base and finished on October 5, followed by a long break and a late harvest of Gewurztraminer in mid-November. This estate’s hallmark is freshness, and Fuchs hit the mark in 2023. The whites are clear and bright, and the Pinot Noirs are a return to form. Bravo.
