Huet-A-Thon (Bay Area Edition): Crisp and tense with a delicate mousse and notes of apple and citrus on the nose with a firm mineral spine on the palate. Very enjoyable and gluggable.

Fairly reticent nose of lemon peel, hay, white pepper, papaya, and faint sweet vanilla. Nearly full bodied, the acid is thick and just starting to soften.The mousse is fine and delicate; this is not the most spritzy of bubblers. The balance is good. Flavors include loads of lemon, lime, and flint. There's also a bit of orange and cardamom. This is good, though not my favorite vintage. I've had some that need a decade or more aging and this isn't one. I think it's probably best before 2028.

Starts a touch tart and restrained. Turns to mead on the nose with freshly sliced green apples. Mouth is more restrained than the nose, though still expressive: peach, apricot skin, under-ripe plum, some spice. It’s nice.
3.6/5

Pas mal, une bulle très fine, un pétillant sur la délicatesse, très joli.

Two down at the WFF Auction. Crisp and dry with the right touch of complexity, a bit of that Chenin fruit on the palate. A big crowd pleaser!
