Community Tasting Note

  • Keith Levenberg Likes this wine: 97 points

    September 6, 2020 - Epic performance, more impressive than I would have figured it had any right to be at just 11 years old. It's got a commanding presence right from the first sip - massive in scale and packed with personality. On the entry it has a chalky, gauzy texture so palpable it feels tannic, then on the back end it solidifies further into a crystal crunch. It's dripping with bright neon-yellow fruit so concentrated it feels like it ought to pour out like a slow treacle but it feels only barely sweet. Over the next couple days it slims down a bit without losing any character. You usually have to wait longer to get a Huet this profound.
