Le Mont Sec Vouvray 2024 Domaine Huet
Domaine Huet's Vouvray Le Mont Sec comes from the vineyard that many consider to be the great antagonist to Clos du Bourg in the debate over which is Vouvray's greatest terroir. Le Mont occupies a privileged position on the Première Côte, with stony and slightly clayey soils, rich in green clay and silica, leaner and better draining than Haut-Lieu: a composition that pushes Chenin Blanc towards intense minerality and an elegant and feminine profile, sharper and more vertical than the generosity of the domaine's original vineyard.
If Haut-Lieu is a warm welcome, Le Mont is the precise handshake of someone who knows exactly what they're worth. A Sec that in its youth can seem almost severe, with an acidity that dominates the palate, but which over time opens up to a mineral complexity of great refinement.
