This bottle was drinkable on day 1 but fell apart on day 2 with apple juice and marshmallow. It is really really not resistent to oxidation and I've been encountering this more and more with Huet. Which is a shame because I understand their track record for aging.

Tasted over-developed, somewhat oxidised, lacking any freshness - not drinkable. Worse these have been consistently off over a few bottles. I have heard of these going through a very closed phase, but my instinct is that these (well stored) bottles were shot / faulty. I've had stunning Huet Sec with more & less age, but seem to have had bad luck with this vintage...

This is in a great place right now. Rich, but with great cut. Stellar, and even better on day two.

Quite developed already. A little bit of oxidation. Pear, pineapple and nutmeg. Some caramel. But still lively and bright acidity brings balance!
