The 2024 Domaine Huet Vouvray Haut Lieu Sec is a Chenin Blanc that hails from the renowned Loire Valley in France, specifically from the Vouvray appellation in the Touraine sub-region. Produced by Domaine Huet, a name synonymous with quality in the world of Vouvray wines, this white wine is sealed with a cork closure and has an alcohol content of 12.5%.

The wine has been reviewed by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, with Yohan Castaing providing a detailed assessment. He awarded the wine a score of 91, highlighting its excellent qualities. Castaing describes the wine as having "notes of lime, herbs and spring flowers" which set the stage for what he refers to as a "medium- to full-bodied, lively and incisive dry white." He notes the wine's "chiseled palate framed by a delicate bitterness and a long, ethereal finish," suggesting it is a classic example of what Domaine Huet can achieve with their Vouvray offerings.

One of the key characteristics of this wine is its potential to evolve over time. Castaing mentions that it "could gain roundness with time in the bottle," indicating that while it is enjoyable now, it may develop further complexity and depth with aging. The wine contains a residual sugar content of 7.5 grams per liter, which contributes to its balance and structure.

Overall, the 2024 Domaine Huet Vouvray Haut Lieu Sec is a well-crafted Chenin Blanc that showcases the elegance and precision of wines from this region. It is an excellent choice for those who appreciate a dry white wine with lively acidity and a refined finish.
