Description
"In 1985 Domaine Huet planted an experimental .20-hectare parcel of own-rooted Chenin Blanc in the Haut-Lieu vineyard. This micro-parcel is not always bottled separately and seldom leaves France’s shores, so we’re delighted to accept our small allocation of the 2017 release. Huet’s ex-Chef de Cave, Jean-Bernard Berthomé, has told us that in comparison to this vineyard’s ‘regular’ dry bottling, the ungrafted vines gift a slightly deeper and more tightly wound expression that takes longer to unfurl. Hence the extended aging in bottle for this release." - Bibendum, Importer Notes
