Alsace: Famille Hugel – Alsace's Geological Diversity – Part II

In this video, Marc Hugel, vineyard manager and technical director at Famille Hugel, shows an example of the complexity and astonishing diversity of Alsace's geological formations. As Marc explained in a previous video, the geology of Alsace "is like a chessboard" - the age and origin of the formations dramatically vary in the shortest distances. 

Watch Marc show a single parcel in the Schoenenbourg vineyard, where two completely different soils lie next to each other - whose origin is separated by no less than 60 million years.
