Domaine Huet Vouvray "Le Haut Lieu" Sec 2023
With a total of 35 hectares of Demeter-certified vineyards, including three of the plots considered Grand Cru of the Vouvray AOC, it is known above all for its absolute control of the star variety chenin blanc
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Chenin Blanc from Vouvray in the Loire Valley, France
Sourced from Le Haut Lieu on the outskirts of Tours, whose clay soils provide a fresh and fruity chenin blanc. The vines are 25 years old and are managed according to biodynamic criteria and harvested by hand
Taste Profile: An aromatic, very intense white with a flavoursome core of ripe, concentrated fruit. The palate is tense and saline, pure and fresh, with chalky tannins. The nose is complex, a real spectacle, with aromas of pear, white peach and citrus. Long, silky finish.
Winemaking Process: Once in the cellar, the bunches are gently pressed and, after a 24-hour debourbage, the must obtained is separated into two equal parts for fermentation with native yeasts; one part is taken to tanks and the other to used barrels. Finally, the wine is aged in French oak barrels
