This is the real deal! From Huet’s finest vineyard, this dry Vouvray is spot on, with showy fruit, excellent minerality and acidity. Showing great balance and harmony.
This beautiful sparkling white offers a vibrantly fresh nose with loads of creamy apricot, succulent melon, round lemon zest tones and a savory touch of nougat. The palate is as decadently vibrant as it is exuberantly delicious. Bright fig, honey and ripe melon flavors are intermingled with racy crystallized ginger notes and a creamy acidity that dances across the palate. Elegantly supple and very sexy.
Dried peach and flinty ginger define the nose of this classic Chenin Blanc. On the palate huge mineral tinged green apple explodes from the glass. A very special wine!
This is a pure, clean, fresh and dry white made from Chenin Blanc grapes. Showing lovely notes of citrus fruit with a hint of peach, this Vouvray is truly delicious.
92pts Robert Parker Offers fresh orange, and grapefruit zest on the nose, florality, and concentration of quince, honey, toasted almond, and citrus, with stony mineral underpinnings.
This shows jaw-dropping purity, with intensely sweet but amazingly graceful notes of dried persimmon, candied ginger, green melon, white tea, crème fraîche, mineral and Key lime custard that ripple through the nearly endless finish. An amazing display of elegance and precision.
