(Le Mont (sec)) Huet Dear Friends, This is a quick weekend offer but it requires little introduction. Huet is one of my favorite producers and there are times when I tried to convince myself that I no longer need red wine in my cellar...if all of it could be replaced by Huet. Certainly Margaux and Lafite have a special place in my heart but Huet ranks right up there with any wine entity and the prices are downright silly for the level of quality and potential ageing ability (those of you that sampled the 1919 Huet at Per Se several years ago will attest to that). For more detailed information on the winery and TN's on all of the below, please see: http://www.thewinedoctor.com/tastingsprofile/huet.shtml A deal I couldn't pass up, this parcel contains pre-packed 6-packs with six different bottles of Huet from the 2007 and 2008 vintage - it's a stellar starter kit for anyone interested in the discovery of this top house. You can look up whatever you need to but all are excellent wines and the 2008 demi-secs are simply terrific (if I recall Neil Martin had a mini love fest over the quality of the 2008s and so did I - the 2007s are no slouch either). Here goes - "first growth" Chenin Blanc, in six different forms - from dry (sec) to sweet (moelleux) and in-between (demi-sec), one bottle of each wine at an outstanding tariff (I'll save you the time and effort of looking up each of these - it's a very good price and the provenance is second to none): Huet 6-Pack 1 - 2007 Le Haut Lieu (demi-sec) 1 - 2007 Le Haut Lieu (sec) 1 - 2007 Le Mont (sec) 1 - 2007 Clos du Bourg (moelleux) 1 - 2008 Le Haut Lieu (demi-sec) 1 - 2008 Le Mont (demi-sec) Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Loire8729

Brought to a tasting. Didn't take notes, but this was a nice sec style that had good, ripe acidity and a mix of mainly stonefruit/tropical notes and some citrus flavours. Nice balance. I would drink up fairly soon, but no great rush (A-).

Farewell to my final bottle of the 2007. Held onto this for over a decade, too. Honeysuckle and hint of petrol. Great concentration, with honey and peach, crushed apple and a persistent finish. There is some riper edges to this wine, yet the freshness and how this shows great life at 15 years is a cool testament to how these can age.

Not drunk under ideal circumstances: not great glassware, some distractions, so only general impressions. Drinking well, with good aromatic expressiveness and a touch more sweetness than one might expect for a sec. Seems youthful still.

Pure aromas of crushed flint, citrus, blanched almonds and white peach burst out of the glass. A stunning mouth follows with outstanding complexity of flavors, displaying perfect balance between sweetness of fruit, acidity, salinity and minerality. The sappy and mineral inflected mid palate finishes with outstanding length. A real stunner, ready to drink on its vivacious qualities, or to hold. Vouvray, Jasnieres or Savennieres can in warm years be as good as any white in France.

Hazy notes from a couple of days ago. Rather closed at first, but it did eventually start to open, albeit in a somewhat grumpy fashion, into a medium bodied, refreshing, right on the edge of dry/off dry mix of honeysuckle, pear, apple and honeyed mineral notes. Nice balance to this. Didn't really scream chenin or Vouvray, but certainly was quite tasty with air. I'll wait a few years on my last bottle (A-).
