Description

Product description for Huet Vouvray Pétillant Brut blanc 1997 (bio)

Peter Müller: The 1997 Crémant de Vouvray Pétillant Brut from Domaine Huet hits the palate with a gently tickling perlage. As its aroma suggests, this isn’t just a Crémant, but a profound wine with immense complexity. Its mousse alone imbues it with a rejuvenating freshness, supported by robust phenolic qualities. Unwaveringly and with an iron hand, it clings to the silken thread of acidity and delivers exquisite pleasure through its unmistakable extravagance.

Colour

A luminous, pure gold with subtle, fine perlage, the wine appears clear and brilliant in the glass.

Nose

The complex aroma of this unique Chenin Blanc is like a nasal journey down the dimly lit stairs into a damp, stately cellar. It smells of must in the most wonderful way. Dried fruit in the form of apricot and plum joins in, and is enhanced by the association of earthy sweetness triggered by the aromas of sugar beet, candied carrots, and pumpkin. These ripe fruit-based components go hand in hand with the leathery characteristics of a tobacco leaf, as well as the roasted aromas of fried chickpeas and hazelnut cream. This is a mature wine with delicate aging notes.
