Domaine Huet has a wondrous nickname for Chenin Blanc: Plan du Clair de Lune, translating to “the Vine of the Moonlight”. This captures the subtle essence of Huet’s wines: clarity amidst the darkness; beams of brilliance traversing the heart of a terroir; purity of land and mind. 

Racy acidity is tempered by fleshy texture and ripe stonefruit. Lush and full-bodied, with pronounced minerality adding to its structure.
