Château du Hureau Saumur Blanc Foudre 75cl - 2011
WINE | WHITE WINE | LOIRE | SAUMUR BLANCBottle of : 0.75L
Chenin
Chenin Blanc at its most refined and textured
- A distinguished expression of Chenin Blanc, the Loire's signature variety, offering considerable depth and complexity. The élevage in large oak foudres imparts a richness and subtle wood integration rarely found in white Loire wines.
- Vinified and aged in traditional oak foudres, this wine develops a broad palate and seamless oak integration. The result is a white of genuine structure and ageing potential, moving well beyond the typical Saumur profile.
- A natural companion to refined gastronomy: sole or turbot in cream sauce, scallops, and aged goat's cheeses. This is a wine that elevates the table without demanding centre stage.

Product features : Château du Hureau Saumur Blanc Foudre 75cl
In the mouth
Ample and well-structured palate with flavours of ripe orchard fruit, honeyed notes, and a distinctive mineral finish. The oak is present but never dominant, lending texture rather than obvious wood character.
On the nose
Intense white stone fruit—pear and quince—with delicate floral notes and a restrained suggestion of oak spice. The bouquet unfolds gradually, revealing mineral undertones.
On the eye
Golden yellow with bright, luminous clarity. The colour speaks to mature fruit and careful oak ageing.
Breeding
Aged with precision in oak vats to enhance the wine's complexity whilst preserving the pure expression of Chenin Blanc
This is Chenin Blanc for those who seek substance and elegance in equal measure. The foudre ageing gives it a dimension you won't find in unoaked Saumurs—a textural richness that rewards careful cellaring. It's a wine I return to often, and one I recommend to anyone serious about Loire whites.
