Community Tasting Notes 6

    August 24, 2022 - Does not show its age - it is more in suspension. Great lenth and complexity, but maybe not reaching to some of the legendary Huet from the 30s and 45, 47

    May 29, 2016 - Herbs, Ricola, well balanced, dry finish. Still with a good freshness.

    March 19, 2016 - TN: Huet Fete V: 1924-1959 (Racines, NYC): I was really looking forward to the fact that half the bottles in the tasting were Demi-Secs, but, unfortunately, for the most part they were a bust! This bottle, sadly, was corked. NR.

    March 19, 2016 - Huets... 1959 and older (Racines, NYC): Dark in color and very short on the palate. Flat without much vibrancy. Some light hints of TCA. Flawed and not rated.

    September 7, 2014 - Fresh, no oxidation, very herbal, like Ricola. Lovely length and depth.
