Experience elegance from Vouvray’s iconic terroir with Domaine Huet’s acclaimed Chenin Blanc. Crafted in France’s Loire Valley, this dry white wine dazzles with layered complexity—think crisp apple flesh, sun-ripened nectarines, and whispers of lychee dancing atop vibrant floral aromas. Its signature limestone-clay soils impart a velvety texture balanced by lively saline acidity, creating a captivating tension between richness and freshness.

Critics celebrate its precision: Vinous highlights its “cloud of pure fruit” and enduring structure, while Wine Spectator praises its “crackling finish” kissed by salted caramel nuances. At 13% alcohol, it’s both approachable now and built to evolve gracefully for years—perfect for collectors seeking age-worthy Loire whites.
