Description
Domaine Huet Vouvray Clos du Bourg 2016 – Premier Chenin Blanc from Loire Valley
93-Point Excellence – Wine Spectator praises this vibrant Loire Valley white for its “bright purity, showcasing crisp pear, green almond, and mineral-driven fennel notes, balanced by a refined, lingering finish.” Perfectly cellared until 2027.
Why This Vouvray Stands Out
Crafted from 100% Chenin Blanc in Touraine’s legendary Clos du Bourg vineyard—revered by founder Gaston Huët for its shallow, flinty soils—this wine marries intensity with elegance. Expect:
– Complex terroir expression: A harmonious blend of Le Mont’s minerality and Le Haut-Lieu’s textured richness.
– Age-worthy structure: 13% alcohol frames its layered green plum and almond nuances, backed by vibrant acidity.
– Critic-adored profile: Ranked among Vouvray’s most powerful single-vineyard bottlings.
Ideal For: Collectors seeking rare Loire gems, or pair with seafood, roasted poultry, or aged goat cheese.
