May 11, 2024 - Didn't make a note for this, but it was lovely, classic and clean expression of Loire Chenin Blanc. Has a bit of upside.

April 22, 2024 - Initial notes of struck match on the nose, giving way to straw, beeswax, honey, lemon, and white flowers. Golden apples, ginger, and a hint of honey on wet stones on the palate. It’s always a special occasion when I open a Huet wine, and this one delivered.

March 6, 2024 - Slight golden color. Caramel, beeswax, bark, pear fruit, stony. Oxidized notes. Toffee pronounced on the round palate. Good length with some RS balanced against acid, noticeable phenolics. I have enjoyed in past but not today. Lacks freshness, clarity. Maybe a slightly off bottle (though cork looked good)?

January 27, 2024 - Can’t add anything beyond Cutlass’s note below. This is lovely, both great now and likely to evolve nicely in the years to come. Will probably hold the other bottle I have a few years to find out.
