About this Wine

Medium sweet. The walls that enclose this six hectare site help facilitate a more humid microclimate favourable to botrytis. For this reason—and notwithstanding the magnificent dry wines from the Clos—this Huet vineyard is the one that most often produces sweet wines from grapes affected by either botrytis or passerillage.

2018 gave us great sweet Clos de Bourg. Finishing with 56 g/L, this offers up pure aromas of mixed candied peel, mandarin and apricot, with bergamot and juniper. It’s simply glorious, the most floral, nuanced and multifaceted of Huet’s Moelleux this year. There’s also the vineyard’s distinctive smoky minerality and intense tanginess on the finish. In spite of the name, this needn’t be served as a dessert wine; the wine’s firm structure and cleansing acidity suggest you go savoury. Try it alongside something like slow-cooked lamb, a saucy curry, or a slab of well-matured Comté.
