{"product_id":"domaine-huet-vouvray-le-mont-sec-2024","title":"Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Mont Sec 2024","description":"\u003cp sugg=\"true\"\u003eRecognised since the 15th century as being one of the most distinguished sites in the appellation, Le Mont was also known locally as Perruches, a local name for the greenish-tinged clay soils flecked with perrons, fist-sized pebbles of flint. Purchased in 1957, the steep, rocky, eight-hectare vineyard lies on Vouvray’s esteemed Première Côte, part of a bank of limestone-rich hillside vineyards overlooking Tours. This block's argilo-siliceux soils (stony, with green, mineral clays and flint over limestone) provide the tight structure and pungent minerality Le Mont is renowned for. With less clay (and a different type of clay) and more stone than Le Haut-Lieu, this site typically produces the nerviest wines in the Huet stable, so this vineyard mainly produces dry and off-dry whites.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp sugg=\"true\"\u003eWhen young, these dry wines are pent-up, intense, mineral (chalky and\/or smoky-fresh) whites that are wonderfully pure and racy. With age, the top examples mature at a snail’s pace to become some of the most intriguing dry whites on the planet. They go from the white flowers, citrus pith and crunchy fruit of youth to something deliciously honeyed, buttery, savoury and autumnal. The younger examples are go-to wines for anything involving seafood or white meat. For the technically minded, Huet’s secs have between 4 and 8 g\/L residual sugar depending on the vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Huet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49151917785316,"sku":"26212-750","price":122.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/2575\/3828\/files\/5e559603-0e66-f111-ad59-0ac0955cf5ff_26212-750_..png?v=1781236480","url":"https:\/\/www.internationalfinewines.com.au\/products\/domaine-huet-vouvray-le-mont-sec-2024","provider":"International Fine Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
