2003 Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Mont Moelleux (Museum Release)

“Residual sugar 75 g/l. A richer golden hue than the wine just tasted – but as that was the 2009 Le Haut Lieu Moelleux it is not really a fair comparison, as we have jumped six vintages here. A very classic style aromatically, a little honey here, quite pure in character, poured over fresh apples, with a little biscuity richness to it. A very overt substance to the palate, polished, quite broad, open, feeling relaxed and a touch loose, a vintage effect I think. Underneath this rich flesh there is some quite fine acidity though. It really opens up in the palate and shows great richness and the acidity comes out a little more. It is certainly not flabby, showing some grip and balance, although it is very much a wine of the vintage.” 17/20 points Chris Kissack, Wine Doctor (February 2013)
