Huet is one of the top producers of Vouvray and one of our favorites. Vouvray is a wildly underappreciated region and Huet is one of its brightest stars. His still wines are rare enough. We only get a set number of cases and they are usually pre-sold before they even land in our cellar.
So we are completely jazzed to get our hands on this lovely sparkling Vouvray Petillant. As with all Vouvray, the grape is Chenin Blanc. "Petillant" indicates that it's carbonated to about half the pressure of Champagne, resulting in a gentle mousse in the mouth. This is an elegant and affordable charmer.
It arrived in our cellar only yesterday and Mark and I drank it last night with the first course of our Truffle Tasting Menu. It was so delicious we were inspired to write you today.
...with aromas of hay, straw and flowers and the honeysuckle sweetness of chenin blanc, though it goes down dry.
