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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
The Le Haut-Lieu sec<\/strong> opens with delicate apple blossoms, white peaches and a fine herbal flavour. The Le Mont sec<\/strong> is somewhat more reserved, but with more mineral depth - wet stones, quince and citrus peel. The Clos du Bourg sec<\/strong> is the most powerful of the three: concentrated yellow fruit, honeydew melon, a hint of beeswax and that smoky minerality reminiscent of flint.<\/p>\n Hier zeigt sich die wahre Gr\u00f6\u00dfe dieser Weine. Le Haut-Lieu besticht durch Eleganz und Trinkfluss, eine seidige Textur und lebendige S\u00e4ure. Le Mont pr\u00e4sentiert sich straffer, mit mehr Spannung und salziger Mineralit\u00e4t \u2013 ein Wein, der Zeit braucht, um sich zu \u00f6ffnen. Der Clos du Bourg vereint Kraft mit Finesse: dichter, strukturierter, mit beeindruckender L\u00e4nge und jenem vibrierenden Energieniveau, das Gaston Huet einst als \u201cnervosit\u00e9\u201d bezeichnete. Alle drei Weine enden mit bemerkenswerter Pr\u00e4zision und einem Nachhall, der minutenlang anh\u00e4lt.<\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n Le Haut-Lieu harmonises wonderfully with Goat cheese<\/strong>, Scallops<\/strong> or Poultry salad<\/strong>. Le Mont goes perfectly with Oysters<\/strong>, Sushi<\/strong> or steamed sea fish<\/strong>. The Clos du Bourg tolerates stronger dishes such as Sweetbreads<\/strong>, Turbot in butter sauce<\/strong> or matured Comt\u00e9<\/strong>.<\/p>\n A rare opportunity to experience three monopole vineyards of a world-class winery in direct comparison - terroir study in its purest form.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Palate<\/h3>\n
