2017 Domaine Huet Vouvray Petillant Brut, Loire

The nose is floral and mineral, with bright citrus fruits. Full and plump on the palate, this is lightly polished, with citrus peel notes, and a rather delicate infusion of minerality. It has a quite charming style, with touches of bitter citrus notes which will have fans of this variety swooning.

The 2017 Brut Vouvray Pétillant is a lightly sparkling demi-sec style. This is a round and lightly biscuity expression with very fine delicate bubbles but not fully sparkling - the second fermentation uses some residual natural sugar that is retained from the first fermentation. Left on lees for around three years, it develops a light pastry character alongside floral notes and a salty sensation. The mouth-watering acidity combines with an attractive, textural roundness and weight.
