February 11, 2024 - Every time I drink this the first thing I say is “stunning”. It really is. 17 years old now and I really think I should keep my last two bottles for a few more years. It has kept the structure and balance, and the flavors are still bright and distinctive. Hay, quince, chamomile, lemon, apple skin. An interesting melon flavor that reminds me of the smell from scraping the inside of a pumpkin at Halloween. Chenin Blanc ages so well and so does Huet, so this has every reason to last and develop longer. This bottle supports that view.

February 11, 2024 - Excellent balance of lemon zest, hay, quince, minerals, Chenin waxiness, chamomile, acidity and length. Bubbles are more like light spritz than bubbles. It is a delicious mature Chenin with mild effervescence.

August 24, 2023 - Another stunning bottle 4 years since my last. Superbly fresh and balanced with light hay, apple and chamomile flavors. It is hard to describe how wonderful this is. There is no sign of age here and I suspect this will hold for years. Huet is a master of Chenin Blanc and this is just another under appreciated example.

August 7, 2023 - Drank with friends, no formal notes. Downright gorgeous, slightly nutty with tropical fruit, sweet citrus, great depth. Really glad we sat on it this long. I'd say drink over the next three or so years.

June 8, 2023 - Delicious and a great wine to celebrate with. Bubbles tiny, flavors rich, finish ethereal. Going to do minimal thinking and maximum enjoyment of this bottle...
