Color
Bright golden yellow with yellow reflections, bright and clear.
Nose
The nose of the 2014 Clos de Bourg Demi-Sec from Huet offers hints of lime blossom, yellow apples, quince and salted caramel. Spicy notes of mace, light Virginia tobacco and coriander float above. A wine that develops enormously with air and shows a constant flow.
Mouth
On the palate, the Clos de Bourg Demi-Sec is creamy with a melting texture. The fine fruit is balanced by distinctive spicy notes that give it its unique tension. Viscous and oily, supported by a long acidic nerve, it is a candidate for the decanter or quick oblivion in the cellar, if successful. A wine with great potential and a perfect companion for aromatic cuisine.
