The wine presents a quite simple nose, predominantly featuring grapefruit, with subtle undertones of orange oil and strawberry that demand effort to be noticed – a somewhat disappointing aspect for those seeking immediate complexity. However, it redeems itself on the palate, offering freshness, good balance, and quite a persistent character. The nice bitterness in the finish adds an element of interest, yet it might not be sufficient to elevate the overall experience significantly. While it provides a pleasing taste, the lack of depth in aroma might leave something to be desired.
Huré Frères
Raoul Huré and his two sons, François and Pierre, are the dynamic trio behind Huré Frères, a family-run winery in Ludes, nestled in the Montagne de Reims. Founded in the mid-20th century, this estate is a proud representative of the grower's Champagne movement, a movement that champions the creation of terroir-driven wines—wines that are as much a reflection of their land as they are of the people who craft them.
