The gold standard of Vouvray Sec and Le Mont is always my favorite of the 3 Huets. — a month ago

Le Mont Damné Sauvignon Blanc 2016

This was pretty muted at least initially. Crisp and refreshing with orchard fruit, wet stones, a bit of smoke, but with a depth hinting at lots more to come with time. Would wait or give it a decant — 7 months ago

Château La Rame

Réserve du Château Sainte Croix du Mont Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1996

Opened about an hour before service. No formal notes. The 1996 Château La Rame “Réserve du Château” pours a deep burnished copper/gold color with medium+ viscosity. Layers of delicious dried apricots, candied lemon, honeysuckle, nuts, with perfectly balanced acid. This is a rich and decadent dessert wine that reminds me of Sauternes (as it should considering it's 100% old-vine Sémillion affected by botrytis) and and a lovely pairing with what was an artistic, deconstructed take on a lemon meringue pie. Will probably live forever. — 9 months ago

Le Mont Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2007

Acid wins the day! I’ve never had a Demi sec before so I was expecting a bit of sweetness and added texture. Well maybe a hint upon initial taste of citrus and honeysuckle. I really enjoyed this! — 3 months ago

Domaine Belluard

mousseux Méthode Traditionnelle Ayse Vin de Savoie Perles du Mont Blanc

Golden yellow, nice gentle fizz on pour. Clean fermented aromas, floral and dried fruit flavors, a lot of varietal character on the finish, good acidity overall. Different but enjoyable — a year ago

Domaine Huet

Le Mont Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2009

Sweet aroma explosion. Light honey, Mirabelle plums, apricots, white tea, candied orange peel, yet it remains so fresh.
On the palate this is so balance, so juicy, v. sweet to still fresh. And there’s depth, a hint of tannic structure, a stony, mineral finish.
Why have dessert when you can have this?
