Huet Clos du Bourg Sec Vouvray 2023

2023 Clos du Bourg Vouvray Sec --VMDomaine Huet The Legend for the CellarThis ancient, walled vineyard was acquired in 1953. It has the estate’s shallowest, stoniest soils and produces wines of great depth and richness. Many consider the 6 ha Clos du Bourg to be Vouvray’s finest single site.-- pts VinousThe 2023 Vouvray Sec Clos du Bourg Sec is a bit muted at this stage, but this tasting is only three weeks after bottling. It's also closed on the palate and needs time to come around. This isn't where it ought to be. The concentration is there, and the classic amplitude and curves are there with a super line and frame, but it just needs to get over its bottle shock. I'm going to come back to this wine in a couple of months. - By Rebecca Gibb MW on May 2024
