It is mentioned as early as the 15th century and has been highly appreciated since then. Like the other two vineyards, Le Mont, with its nine hectares, is the sole property of the Huet estate and was acquired by Gaston Huet in 1957 as the last of the three vineyards.  It is characterised by the topsoil, several metres deep, of a pebbly flint, sometimes the size of a fist, which is there\u00a0<em>perron<\/em>\u00a0is called, in deep green clay. The base is the usual Turonian tuff limestone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The harvest took place in 2020 between 7 September and 25 September. As the vintage was strongly characterised by sun and warmth, mainly residually sweet wines were produced. As usual, the grapes were meticulously sorted, pressed and spontaneously fermented. Malolactic fermentation took place only in exceptional cases and in individual barrels. The wine was aged in used demi-muids.\u00a0<em>Moelleux<\/em>\u00a0for Huet means between 45 and 55 grams of residual sweetness. In this case, it is 49 grams.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Colour<\/h4>\n<div>\n<p>intense straw yellow<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Nose<\/h4>\n<div>\n<p>The 2020<em>\u00a0Le Mont Moelleux<\/em>\u00a0is fresh and lively, fine, elegant and timeless. The complex bouquet starts with yellow and green apples, lemons, limequats and grapefruits including zests as well as some slightly exotic notes of papaya and just ripened pineapple. There are also subtle notes of curry leaves and apple peel. On top of this lies the for\u00a0<em>Le Mont<\/em>\u00a0so typical scent of crushed quartz rock.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Palate<\/h4>\n<div>\n<p>On the palate the\u00a0<em>2020 Le Mont Moelleux<\/em>\u00a0concentrated and complex right from the start. The 49 grams of sweetness are noticeable, but are wonderfully integrated into the lively acidity and the dancing minerality. The\u00a0<em>Moelleux<\/em>\u00a0has an astonishing amount of grip and a clear phenolic, plus ripe fruit, some tart orange notes and a fascinating mix of flint and salt that remains present until the very last corner of the long finish. Of course, the wine is only at the beginning of its development, which will easily last for two decades. But in the balance that the Chenin Blanc offers, it is already fantastic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"food_suggestion\">\n<h3>Food recommendations by Christoph Raffelt<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Caramelised pork belly with apple sauce\n<div class=\"prod-food-cats\">  <\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>Duck terrine with apples and pistachios   <\/li>\n<li>Tajine with mirabelles, ginger and cardamom   <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ul class='wine-character-bullets'>\n<li>\ud83c\udf47 <strong>Color:<\/strong> Intense straw yellow<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf3a <strong>Aroma:<\/strong> Fresh and lively with yellow and green apples, lemons, limequats, grapefruit, papaya and pineapple, plus curry leaves and apple peel as well as crushed quartz stone<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf77 <strong>Taste:<\/strong> Concentrated and complex with 49g of residual sweetness, embedded in lively acidity and dancing minerality, ripe fruit, tart orange notes, flint and a hint of salt until the long finish<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udfad <strong>Character:<\/strong> Concentrated, complex, with amazing grip and clear phenolics, a long-term ageing potential of two decades<\/li>\n<li>\ud83c\udf7d\ufe0f <strong>Food recommendation:<\/strong> Caramelised pork belly with apple sauce, duck terrine with apples and pistachios, tajine with mirabelle plums, ginger and cardamom<\/li>\n<li>\u2728 <strong>Special features:<\/strong> Solely owned by the Huet estate, with topsoil of pebbly flint and a deep green clay base, potential for two decades of ripening<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"featured_media":213091,"template":"","meta":{"bwfblock_default_font":"","neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","neve_meta_reading_time":"","_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false},"product_brand":[1562],"product_cat":[3055,3565],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-57126","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-huet","7":"product_cat-huet","8":"product_cat-premiumweine","9":"pa_farbe-weiss","10":"pa_inhalt-750ml","11":"pa_jahrgang-2426","12":"pa_restsuesse-suess","13":"pa_sorte-chenin-blanc","14":"pa_typ-suesswein","15":"pa_typ-wein","16":"show-hover","18":"first","19":"outofstock","20":"taxable","21":"shipping-taxable","22":"purchasable","23":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Huet - Le Mont Moelleux 2020<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Le Mont Moelleux 2020 \u2013 Huet aus Loire.
