Huet Clos du Bourg Demi-Sec
Vintage: | 2023 |
---|---|
Description: | Gaston Huët believed this to be the greatest of all Vouvray vineyards. With the Première Côte's poorest, shallowest, stoniest soils, Clos du Bourg is one of the most mythical sites of Vouvray - the topsoil of clay is only one meter thick, with the vines growing their roots directly in the tuffeau of the cliff overlooking the main street of the village. This vineyard tends to produce the broadest, largest wines of the domaine, built to age for decades - although in some vintages we find a more pronounced mineral character in the wines of "Le Mont." "The 2023 Clos du Bourg Demi-Sec from Domaine Huët is another beautiful example of the vintage. As is often the case these days, this wine comes in a half point higher in octane than the Le Mont version, tipping the scales at 13.5 |
