The 1992 was oxidized butt still fresh with acidity, quince and blanched nuttiness. Such a great look at a long lived Chenin.

Rubber on the acidic ironing board with orange rind. Dry, dry apricot juice, fermented with champagne yeast. The Demi-Sec comes through tart, with pear fires burning in the distance on a misty morning marsh walk.

People loved this Demi-Sec, but I thought it had a particularly funky (almost vomity) nose. I love me some old Huet, but something was a little off for me on this bottle. Tasted nice enough, though.
