Huet Clos du Bourg Première Trie Moelleux 2022

WineSaint
Honeyed pear and baked apple flow with remarkable elegance across the palate. The texture is pure silk rather than the typical weight of dessert wines. Clos du Bourg's clay-limestone terroir brings mineral precision to the finish, though reduced acidity makes this less structured than classic vintages. If the 2003 vintage provides any indication, this rare bottling should evolve gracefully over time.
