Le Haut-Lieu Demi-Sec Vouvray Chenin Blanc

One of the classics... enjoyable

Amazing...paired with Indian spicy shrimp. WOTN...

So stupidly classic. Wet wool, ripping acid, bruised apples, chamomile tea, and plenty of limestone. Really hoping that top 5 wine of the year rating doesn't cause this to skyrocket.

Had this with some spicy Szechuan food tonight and it just rocked. The perfect amount of fruit development and RS made the wine sing! One of my very favorite Chenin producers. It made the linear acid bomb Chenins I've had recently look like child's play

Really terrific. Honeyed, touch of sweetness, good acidity. Will hold for a long time, surely.

2015. I have been eyeing the numerous vintages, vineyards, and levels of sweetness of Chenin Blanc in the Oven’s deep cellar for years. Tonight was a good night to try this Demi-sec and the Moelleux of the same vintage. The Demi-sec had beautiful honey and tropical fruit aromas and flavors. The Moelleux had a fuller body, but the Demi-sec was my favorite!

too young, but could not resist a glass. a beauty in the works

Glorious Chenin blanc. Still very young tasting. Lovely nose of sweet apple, lanolin, homeysuckle and nettle. On the palate: fantastic acidity, good density: sweet apple, lemon oil, and crushed limestone. Very nice finish. Still showing rather young, but very good.

Stunning. Very much in its youth but absolutely enjoyable. Shredding fruit, flashing acids. Joyful now but will kill later
