"The 2002 Vouvray “Le Haut Lieu” Demi-Sec from Domaine Huët is a beautiful wine that is drinking very well at the present time, but shows no signs of any unexpected advancement on either the nose or palate. The superb bouquet offers up scents of fresh apricot, quince, a hint of honeycomb, wool, orange blossoms and a beautifully complex base of soil. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and racy, with a superb core of fruit, great focus and superb length and grip on the poised and complex finish. Just a beautiful bottle of Demi-Sec that has now entered its plateau of maturity."
