Huet; Le Haut-Lieu Sec; 2010; 2 (1 x 2); 750ml

Domaine Huet is the most storied estate in Vouvray, founded in 1928 and raised to legend by Gaston Huet, the winemaker-mayor who defended the appellation for more than half a century. Farmed biodynamically since 1990, it draws Chenin Blanc of extraordinary purity and longevity from three great parcels, in styles that run from bone-dry (sec) through off-dry (demi-sec) to lusciously sweet (moelleux). Le Haut-Lieu, Huet's original vineyard on deeper clay over limestone, gives the roundest, most approachable wines. This is a dry sec from the classic 2010 vintage. James Molesworth from Wine Spectator gave it a rating of 92, and Jancis Robinson gave it 16+ out of 20.
