2022 Domaine Huet Vouvray Clos du Bourg Moelleux Première Trie

97 POINTS

Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Notes of baked apple, pear, spices and white fruits preface the 2022 Vouvray Clos du Bourg Moelleux Première Trie, a medium- to full-bodied, concentrated and layered sweet wine. A fine phenolic structure elegantly frames it, and the wine concludes with a fresh, telluric and seemingly endless finish. Long, precise and seamless, this is a standout cuvée and one of the highlights of the vintage at this storied address. Residual sugar: 105 grams per liter.

“Just 650 bottles of the 2022 Clos du Bourg Premiere Trie Moelleux were made, and it is sweet, gentle and round. It fills the mouth with its sweet caress, exuding pure flavors of toffee apple, caramelized pear and pineapple. While sweet, it is less unctuous than you'd expect from many sweet wines from warmer sites due to the climate and soils, bringing a sense of cleanness and fine texture on the finish. That said, the lower acidity of this year means it's not quite as long and linear. A recent bottle of 2003 with similarly low acidity aged well, so I expect the same here. (105g/L).” 93 points, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous
