For three generations, Huré Frères champagnes have embodied authenticity and excellence of the Champagne terroir. Founded in 1960 by François and Raoul Huré, the Huré Frères house has forged a reputation for excellence over the decades, thanks to know-how passed down from generation to generation. Today, it is Raoul and François Jr, the founders’ grandsons, who perpetuate this heritage with passion, rigor, and dedication. The Huré Frères house stands out for its philosophy of sustainable and environmentally friendly viticulture. The vineyards, mainly located in the Montagne de Reims, are cultivated using practices aimed at preserving biodiversity and soil quality. This respectful approach translates into authentic wines, a faithful reflection of their original terroir. This attention to detail is found in every step of the making of their champagnes, from the careful selection of grapes to vinification and aging. The Huré Frères house favors traditional methods, while not hesitating to innovate to enhance their cuvées. This relentless quest for perfection is particularly evident in their two iconic cuvées: Brut Memory and Brut Invitation.
The Brut Memory cuvée from Huré Frères is much more than just a champagne; it is a true ode to family heritage and the know-how passed down from generation to generation. This exceptional cuvée is made from reserve wines carefully kept over the years, some dating back about twenty years. Each sip of Brut Memory is thus a journey through time, revealing the evolution and maturity of the champagne. Brut Memory is characterized by unique complexity and depth, the result of the precise blending of several vintages. The composition of this cuvée mainly relies on the classic grape varieties of the region: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. The harmonious marriage of these three grape varieties gives Brut Memory a rich and balanced structure, as well as a very rich aromatic palette. On tasting, Brut Memory reveals intense and developed aromas, with notes of dried fruits, honey, and subtly woody touches. The palate is ample, marked by a beautiful minerality and delicate effervescence. This champagne is an ideal companion for a refined meal, perfectly matching various dishes such as seafood, roasted poultry, or matured cheeses. Perfect for discerning palates, Brut Memory is a true case study for understanding and appreciating all the complexity that a great champagne can offer. It embodies both the history of the Huré Frères house and the purest expression of their terroir. A cuvée to savor slowly, to appreciate every nuance and memory encapsulated in the bubbles.
The Brut Invitation cuvée from Huré Frères is a true invitation to discovery and sensory pleasure. Made from grapes mainly from the Premiers and Grands Crus of the Montagne de Reims, this cuvée embodies the spirit of openness and innovation that drives the house. Brut Invitation is characterized by its perfect balance between freshness and complexity, offering a tasting experience that is both accessible and sophisticated. The secret of Brut Invitation lies in its mastered blend of the three champagne grape varieties: Pinot Noir, which provides structure and character; Pinot Meunier, which brings roundness and fruitiness; and Chardonnay, synonymous with finesse and elegance. This skillfully dosed combination creates a harmonious champagne, shining with its liveliness and brilliance. In appearance, Brut Invitation is adorned with a golden robe, enhanced by a fine effervescence. The nose, meanwhile, is a true aromatic bouquet, where notes of citrus fruits, white fruits, and flowers mingle. On the palate, this champagne reveals a lively and frank attack, followed by a beautiful roundness and a persistent finish. The whole is marked by a sparkling freshness, making each sip as pleasant as it is refreshing.
