In the olden days the Chenin was known as the King of the grape varieties planted along the slopes of the Loire, but little by little the Cabernet Franc took over. Today the golden bunches of Chenin are more and more rare. Which is strange, for our ancestors demonstrated time and time over that it was possible to produce excellent dry whites here – this is what we are trying to do with our small cuvée of Saumur Blanc. Extremely restricted yields, hand-harvested in selective pickings, fermentations and development in wood, organic farming – everything to ensure the creation of a truly exceptional wine.

Lodged in the middle of the Loire Valley, the Château du Hureau winery estate offer to you its wines : Saumur Champigny, Saumur Brut, Saumur Blanc and Coteaux de Saumur, each one recognised as some of the best of their appellations. On this website, you can follow the life of the domaine, find out everything you want about the Château du Hureau wines and contact Philippe Vatan. The four different cuvees in Saumur Champigny and the Saumur Brut Rosé come from the cabernet franc grape, and the Saumur Blanc and the Coteaux de Saumur from the chenin. The alliance between cabernet franc, the limestone underground named « tuffeau » and the microclimate of Saumur brings the Saumur Champigny appellation to the first place among the redwines from the Loire, welknown for their freshness and elegance. For more than one thousand years, the Saumur area is a top place for the chenin, and its dry and sweet white wines enjoy a worldwide reputation.
