Huet Vouvray Le Haut Lieu Sec ex Domaine 1988

Polished. Mid-depth. Retains some hints of green. Attractive nose and classic Huet, with a touch of wet wool and oyster shell. Delicate and complex. Very good focus on entry, with weight and texture which develops into a powerful, mineral-stony finish. Still very lively and fresh and drinking well now although will continue to hold. Persistent finish with just an impression of some residual sugar (8g/l)

Biodynamic techniques have been used at all of Domaine Huet's vineyards since 1990. The estate comprises three vineyards, all with their own unique blueprint and personality: Le Haut-Lieu, Le Clos du Bourg and Le Mont. The original vineyard, Le Haut-Lieu (literally meaning ‘the high place’) surrounds the house and extends for some nine hectares.
Le Clos du Bourg, which was purchased by Gaston in 1953, is the oldest site in the appellation of Vouvray, dating back to the eighth century. Completing the trio is the most famous, Le Mont, with its green-tinged soils and late-harvesting vines from which Gaston produced his longest-lived and arguably most famous wines.
