I love Huet and have been drinking the 2010-14s over the past couple of years but scored this 2004 in a cellar sale and am very impressed. The sometimes hard mineralogy has mellowed, lemon shows through a bit with apricot and I get a long, lingering finish. A really wonderful #cheninblanc that tastes at a peak though wonder what a few more years might bring.
