Description

Product description for Huet Le Haut Lieu Moelleux 1ère Trie 2018 (bio)

Wine Information

During a visit to the village of Vouvray in 1928, the Huet family fell in love with the charm of this property, which included a five-hectare vineyard. Purchased that same year, it represents the origin of the domaine.

Vine Information

Today, the vineyard consists of fifteen hectares above the Vouvray plateau. The deep brown tone of Haut-Lieu ensures fruitiness and freshness in the wines.

Colour

Sparkling, dense golden yellow with fine green reflections.

Nose

The 2018 Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu 1ère Trie Moelleux reveals itself with an impressively open nose, reminiscent of apple, apple sauce, quince, quince jelly, white peach puree, and ripe pear. In addition to the very present fruit, subtle notes of anise and ginger are hinted at, along with a hint of acacia blossom, chamomile, and honeysuckle. Delicate green notes of nettle and savory lend it tension and freshness.

Palate

The palate is fine and subtle; alongside the elegant sweetness, plenty of citrus and fresh apple come to the fore, followed by a delicate spicy touch that further stimulates the tongue. It seems to float across the palate, carefree and light-footed. Still at the very beginning of its development, it will unfold excellently over the next few years. If you want to enjoy it now, you should decant it if possible and drink it from a larger glass, not too cool.
