Wine description for Tasting Package Huet 3 Lagen trocken 2022 4500ml from Tasting Package
This tasting package offers a fascinating horizontal tour through the three monopole vineyards of the legendary Domaine Huet - a masterclass in Chenin Blanc and terroir expression from Vouvray. The 2022 vintage presents itself with the crystalline clarity and precision that can be expected from this exceptional biodynamically farmed estate.
Colour & appearance
All three wines have a light, bright straw yellow colour with greenish reflections - typical of young, dry Chenin Blanc. The brilliance in the glass promises freshness and vitality.
Nose
The Le Haut-Lieu sec opens with delicate apple blossoms, white peaches and a fine herbal flavour. The Le Mont sec is somewhat more reserved, but with more mineral depth - wet stones, quince and citrus peel. The Clos du Bourg sec is the most powerful of the three: concentrated yellow fruit, honeydew melon, a hint of beeswax and that smoky minerality reminiscent of flint.
Palate
Hier zeigt sich die wahre Größe dieser Weine. Le Haut-Lieu besticht durch Eleganz und Trinkfluss, eine seidige Textur und lebendige Säure. Le Mont präsentiert sich straffer, mit mehr Spannung und salziger Mineralität – ein Wein, der Zeit braucht, um sich zu öffnen. Der Clos du Bourg vereint Kraft mit Finesse: dichter, strukturierter, mit beeindruckender Länge und jenem vibrierenden Energieniveau, das Gaston Huet einst als “nervosité” bezeichnete. Alle drei Weine enden mit bemerkenswerter Präzision und einem Nachhall, der minutenlang anhält.
General information
Domaine Huet has stood for uncompromising quality since 1928. Under the management of Sarah Hwang and her team, the 35 hectares are cultivated according to Biodyvin guidelines. Each of the three vineyards tells its own story from the tufa terraces of the Loire.
Food pairing suggestions
Le Haut-Lieu harmonises wonderfully with Goat cheese, Scallops or Poultry salad. Le Mont goes perfectly with Oysters, Sushi or steamed sea fish. The Clos du Bourg tolerates stronger dishes such as Sweetbreads, Turbot in butter sauce or matured Comté.
Special features
A rare opportunity to experience three monopole vineyards of a world-class winery in direct comparison - terroir study in its purest form.
