Description

Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Haut Lieu Demi-Sec 1949: A very rich and golden colour, this is a strategic release as it has 60 years under its belt this year. A very round nose, fine and softly defined. A taste from a first bottle showed a hint of oxidation, and this was certainly carried through onto the palate which is fine, gently, sweet, with orange rind. But there are also notes of baked earth. It is very harmonious and worthwhile despite this element, although I would be surprised it if were scored very highly. A second bottle showed a much cleaner character, with freshness and more defined mature orange and sweet, caramel crunch aromas and flavours. Some bottle variation is to be explained in a wine this age of course. My score is based on the second bottle. From a demi-sec tasting in London. 18/20 (September 2009)
