Description of Vouvray Demi-Sec "Le Haut Lieu"

Estate

Domaine Huet is a prominent estate in the Vouvray appellation, renowned for its commitment to organic farming and exceptional wine quality. This family-run estate is a cornerstone of the Loire Valley wine landscape.

Vineyard

Located in Touraine, the vineyard enjoys calcareous clay soils ideal for Chenin Blanc cultivation. The temperate climate and diverse exposures allow for a slow and optimal ripening of the grapes.

Wine

This Vouvray white is made from Chenin Blanc, the flagship grape of the region, which expresses remarkable aromatic potential and complexity here. The wine is certified organic, ensuring environmentally respectful viticulture.

Vintage

The 2020 vintage is noted for its excellent balance of freshness and richness, despite generally warmer conditions throughout the year. It is highly praised by critics, notably receiving a Parker rating of 95-96 points.

Vinification and Aging

Traditional vinification methods are used with careful temperature control to preserve the Chenin’s aromas. Aging partly in oak barrels adds an elegant texture without overshadowing the fruit’s purity.

Blend

Chenin Blanc

Characteristics & Tasting

Tasting

  • Appearance: Pale yellow with golden highlights, clear and bright.
  • Nose: Intense and complex, combining white flower notes, acacia, ripe citrus and a typical mineral touch from the terroir.
  • Palate: Full-bodied and balanced, a nice roundness blends with freshness, culminating in a long, saline, and persistent finish.

Serving

Serve between 10 and 12°C. Light decanting is recommended for younger vintages to open up the aromatic bouquet.

Food Pairings

This Vouvray pairs excellently with green asparagus risotto, sea bass fillets with braised fennel, aged goat cheese such as Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine and free-range chicken with morel sauce.

Occasions

Perfect for a spring lunch, refined receptions, or family dinners involving enthusiasts of exceptional white wines.

Aging Potential

Can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity over 10 to 15 years, with optimal drinking expected between 2028 and 2035.
