DOMAINE HUET
Few producers can claim a level of influence to almost identify with their appellation – one of those is Domaine Huet. This iconic estate has been one of the standard-bearers of Vouvray since 1928. A true pioneer, Gaston Huet was one of the first vignerons to adopt biodynamic practices and to focus on single-vineyard bottlings. Remaining true to the philosophy of the founders, Sarah Hwang and Jean-Bertrand Berthomé continue to craft superbly long-lived Chenin Blanc from their three vineyards. From lively sparkling to unctuous Moelleux, the Domaine Huet range is the most extraordinary way to venture into Vouvray.NEW RELEASES

TASTING NOTES
The blend consists of 95% Tempranillo from 40-year-old vines in Las Cuevas, El Palo and Las Monjas in Rodezno, complemented with 5% Graciano from the Montecillo estate in Fuenmayor. The Graciano gives the wine an aromatic intensity and acidity, to carry the structure and elegance of the Tempranillo. The grapes are vinified separately in four-and-a-half-year-old American oak for three years, and...

TASTING NOTES
Extremely fresh and elegant with hints of butter, cream and granny smith apples, bitter white almost and cinnamon. Texturally almost weightless, so refined it floats across your palate. Finishes with tension and freshness. This can age with the great Vintage Champagnes. Armit Wines

An incredibly full aroma, this fantastically scented demi-sec has soft notes of summer garden and citrus fruit salad. White peach, jasmine and lemon peel give the wine a stunning delicacy coupled by an amazing vibrancy as the sugars dance like a ballerina on the tongue. Impeccable balance between fondant fancy vanilla notes and a mineral laciness that lingers on and...

Thrilling and bright in its nervy youthfulness; green apple is to the fore on this elegantly scented Moelleux – the apogee of the Huet style. This bright, crunchy fruit is accompanied by notes of white flowers and subtle, soft sweet lemon meringue undertones. The palate has a chalky, sweet density but has that hallmark lightness of touch and vein of...
