Domaine Huet - Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec
Domaine Huet - Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec
One of three single-vineyard Chenin by Huet, each conveying a different expression of Vouvray's chalky limestone soils. The Le Haut-Lieu was Huet’s first vineyard, but it’s anything but a warm-up act. Perched high on the Première Côte, this historic nine-hectare plot delivers some of the most elegant and expressive Chenin Blanc in Vouvray. Grown on rich, chalky aubuis soils over limestone, the wine shows early generosity—supple, mineral, and full of energy. When young, it’s all citrus pith, white flowers and that signature smoky-chalk tension. But patience pays off. With time, it evolves into a complex beauty: honeyed, savoury, and quietly majestic. Whether you drink it now or cellar it for decades, this is Chenin that speaks fluently in both youth and age.
