This wine is a winner. Perfect balance at a young age. Somewhere between a Viognier and a Chardonnay in mouthfeel and texture. Good acidity and a long and enjoyable finish. Highly recommended! Cheers everyone!

Probably shouldn’t have opened this so so young. It’s delicious and elegant but still embryonic and thus hard to evaluate. Melon, kiwi and quince on the nose and palate. Very bright, tart, with a touch of sweetness but hasn’t taken on density yet. 9.3 for now

Update: easy 9.4 by day 3… it’s now a full blown freak show of kaleidoscopic fruit. Expect this will be even better with a few years.

Love Huet. The Sec has great fruit with a nice crispness. Drinking very nicely right now.

Another fine vintage, lots of honeyed apple, ripping.

Man I love this stuff! Great fruit well balanced by acidity, combined with a taste of the region, terrior if you will. Stood up to and paired nicely with salmon for dinner.

2020-Huet. Marvelous. Nice nose. really good balance of acidity and fruit. For the price point an excellent CB from Lore. If I had a bigger budget I’d have a case
