Description

1x bottle in excellent condition. Removed from temperature controlled bonded storage in 2021 and stored in cool dark cellar since.

'Complex, intense nose packed with baked apples, peaches, apricots, galia melon with a touch of chalkiness. Very elegant on the palate with a lovely richness. Not too sweet - in fact the sweetness is scarcely notable despite 23g/l residual sugar. Peaches, melons and lemon zest transform into a delicious lingering honeyed finish. Certainly one to keep for a few years. Only 44 hl produced. FINE+RARE

Score: 18.5/20'

'As someone who grew up in the sixties and seventies - the nadir of Vouvray production - the arrival of Huet wines was an epiphany. Where the old manifestations were filthy and flabby, these are pure, vivid and have a nervy balance. They have all the intensity of low cropped Chenin fruit, with a freshness and apple marmalade tang. Delicious now with huge potential for aging. (CW 18/11/13)' uncorked.co.uk

'About the domain
The Vouvray AOC was first created in 1936, and covers 1,800 hectares spread across eight different municipalities. The only grape variety allowed here is Chenin Blanc (also known as Pineau de la Loire). Established in 1928, today the Huet estate encompasses 35 hectares mainly spread over three properties: Le Haut-Lieu, Le Mont and Le Clos du Bourg. A well-known local figure, Gaston Huet (former mayor of Vouvray, member of the INAO), is now retired, and the estate was managed by his son-in-law, Noël Pinguet, from 1976 to 2012. Since 1990, the vineyard has been worked entirely according to biodynamic principles. Across the estate as a whole, half of the vines are between 30 and 50 years old. The property was bought in 2004 by Anthony Hwang, retaining the same essential philosophy and keeping Jean-Bernard Berthomé as cellar master. This estate is one of the most famous in the region, always delivering wines of the highest level. Top drawer.

About the cuvée
Vouvray Le Mont's demi-sec incarnation boasts a stunning balance between sweetness and acidity. It exudes a complex, delicate bouquet of cloves and verbena. Beautiful substance on the palate.' idealwine.co.uk
