With its green clay and its perfect exposition on the Première Côte de Vouvray just above the winery, Le Mont is an outstanding site for Chenin, and I have to admit often my favorite in the line-up. It has the lift and fruit of the Haut-Lieu, and the gravitas of Le Clos du Bourg, with a very specific wild mint freshness and a smokiness I care very much for! All the still wines at Huet are made the same way, the only difference being the picking, and the balance of the must. Aging happens mostly in larger, older barrels and sometimes partially in tank, but always blended, to be bottled in April. "Residual sugar 9.8 g/l, alcohol 14.16%, total acidity 5.55 g/l. A very floral nose here, tighter and more concentrated than Le Haut Lieu in this vintage, and not so expressive. A fine, stone fruit style, lovely texture, firm and finely balanced. There is a lot of good substance here, great built-up structure and a fine length too. This is an impressive wine with plenty of promise. From a 2010 Huet update." Wine Doctor
