In the heart of the Loire Valley in France, nestled between the cities of Angers and Tours, lies the small village of Vouvray. This picturesque village is home to one of the most renowned wine producers in the region - Domaine Huet. For over 90 years, this family-owned estate has been producing exceptional wines that truly capture the essence of the Loire Valley.

What sets Domaine Huet apart from other wine producers in the region is their unwavering commitment to sustainable and biodynamic practices. The estate has been certified organic since 1990 and biodynamic since 1993, making it one of the first wineries in the Loire Valley to adopt these practices. This dedication to natural winemaking is reflected in the quality and purity of their wines.

The estate's vineyards span over 35 hectares, with the majority of the vines planted on the iconic white chalky soils that Vouvray is known for. The cool climate and unique terroir of the region, combined with the biodynamic practices, result in wines that are full of character and complexity.

Domaine Huet is most famous for its production of Vouvray, a white wine made from Chenin Blanc grapes. The estate produces a range of Vouvray wines, including dry, off-dry, and sweet styles. Each wine is a true expression of the terroir, showcasing the minerality and freshness that are characteristic of the Loire Valley.

One of the most notable wines from Domaine Huet is the Clos du Bourg Vouvray, made from grapes grown in the estate's oldest and most prestigious vineyard. This wine is a testament to the skill and expertise of the winemaker, with its nuanced flavors of honey, apricot, and lemon, and a long, elegant finish.
