Heliotrope and narcissus set the sweet and musky tone for Huet's 2008 Vouvray Demi-Sec Le Haut Lieu, which delivers a near-jolt of energy, bright citricity, and the musky bite of Misato rose radishes to the palate. Underlying alkaline and chalky notes as well as a hint of honey add to the musky complexity of a long finish. This should be remarkable to follow for 15 or more years, though I'm not sure I would broach another bottle for 2-3, or that becoming harmonious is really what this wine will be about.
