Domaine Huet Vouvray Demi-Sec Le Mont 2022 750ml Swabia Distillery he purchased in 1869FRANCE : LOIRE : VOUVRAY Chenin Blanc MED BODIED, OFF DRY, QUINCE, WHITE PEACH, BEESWAX, MINERAL, NO OAK Domaine Huet is one of Vouvray's most celebrated estates biodynamically farmed on steep tuffeau slopes, with "Le Mont" being their single vineyard on the highest ground. Demi sec means residual sugar: quince and honey on the palate, but the Loire's natural acidity keeps it structured rather than sweet. One of the great Chenin Blancs, full stop.
