Huet Vouvray Le Clos du Bourg Moelleux 2016

Full Bottle/Gently Sweet yet racy. 2009 was a sensational year for sweet wines, providing the perfect conditions for this style of wine to be produced.

"Quince and white peach preserves fill the nose and caressingly coat the palate from Huet's 2009 Vouvray Moelleux Clos du Bourg, which displays a combination of lift and delicacy with its honeyed richness that none of the present collection tasted up until this point approach. Here are brightness, energy, and efficacious acids driving the quince and pineapple, seamlessly forward. Here too are mineral nuances too often missing from the sweet Vouvray and Montlouis of this vintage. Expect this superbly persistent bottling to be worth following for a quarter century." 93 points, David Schildknecht, erobertparker.com, issue 190 Aug 2010
