Wine Details
Clean Lines, Citrus Light
Les Huées opens with green apple, pear, lemon and a bright edge of lime. Apricot adds a soft glow while the subtle new oak brings finesse rather than weight. The palate is taut and refreshing, lifted by vibrant acidity and shaped by a final flicker of salinity. Super clean, super pure and wonderfully drinkable — a wine that feels cut from the same cloth as classic Chablis, but with its own quiet confidence.
The Plot
A south-facing slope on shallow, stony clay-limestone, planted in the early 1990s. The combination of rock, exposure and altitude gives the wine both freshness and concentration. This is one of Arnaud’s most classical sites — a place where purity and mineral brightness naturally lead the style.
Technical
Hand-harvested Chardonnay from shallow, rocky soils. Natural fermentation. Maturation in a mix of stainless steel and barrels, with 30% new oak. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
