Domaine Huet, Vouvray, Loire
More of this 'The 100 Most Iconic Wine Estates' video series at quintessentiallywine.com
Domaine Huet is the globally acknowledged master of age-worthy Chenin Blanc. An ancient bottle of Vouvray Clos du Bourg could be as fresh as a summer meadow and autumn rolled into one.
The great Gaston Huet, who passed away in 2002, inherited this estate from his father Victor and mother Anna-Constance, who bought it in 1929.
Until recently the estate was run by Gaston's son-in-law Noel Pinguet and with the security of substantial investment it looks set to cruise into the next generation, with winemaking controlled by local lad Benjamin Joliveau and long time cellar-master Jean-Bernard Berthome.
The 35ha estate includes a set of stunning 'lieu dits' and these make a bewildering array of styles of wines. Sparkling wines, Sec (dry), Demi-Sec and also Moelleux (sweet) styles can come from any of the three exceptional vineyards, Le Haut-Lieu, Clos du Bourg and Le Mont depending on the quality of the vintage. Le Constance, a botryised cuvee named after Gaston's mother, is also made in exceptional vintages.

[F] Domaine Huet, Vouvray, avec Noel Pinguet
*Come on a Wine Tour with us!* --- Interview with Noel Pinguet, winemaker and co-owner of the Domaine Huet l Echansonne vineyards in the Vouvray wine region in the Loire Valley. It is a biodynamic vineyard in the centre of the Loire Valley.
[F] The language is French.
Interview avec Noel Pinguet du Domaine Huet. Noel Pinguet est le vigneron et le co-proprietaire du Domaine Huet l Echansonne qui est situe a Vouvray en plein coeur de la Vallee de la Loire, dans la region de tous les châteaux de la vallee de la Loire, Chambord, Chenonceaux etc
Le domaine a 35 hectares de vignes, exclusivement plantes de chanin blanc.
On produit une large gamme de vins : des secs, demi secs, moelleux et aussi des petillants.
On cultive selon les principes de la biodynamie depuis une vingtaine d annees
Qu est-ce que c est la biodynamie ? On travaille avec aucun traitement chimique, on suit le rythme planetaire (les planetes, mais principalement la lune), on considere que la terre est un etre vivant. On utilise des traitements faites pour garder cette vie dans la terre : des bacteries, des compostes. . . On utilise des preparations (infusions) a base de plantes, par example l ortie, le prele, l osier etc
Ceci donne aux vins une expression qui respecte et exprime le terroir. Le resultat, le vin, depend completement des conditions climatiques. La biodynamie a accentue cette expression du terroir selon Noel Pinguet.
Domaine Huet a trois terroirs (ou proprietes ou vignobles / vignes) differents : le Clos de Bourg, l Haut Lieu, et Le Mont. Les trois sont essentiellement des sols argilo-calcaires.
Tous les vins sont faits avec le cepage chenin blanc

Understanding Loire Valley Vouvray with Noel Pinguet
Ready for a course in Applied Biodynamics from the Rudolph Steiner School? Noel Pinguet of Domaine Huet introduces us to the quasi-mystical philosophy that led him to experiment with a scientific mode of culture—a field where he is a real pioneer.
In the land of Chenin Blanc, through sparkling Vouvray we find the concept of verticality and minerality in wine, learn the meaning of the words ‘Sec’, ‘Demi-Sec’ and ‘Moelleux’ or ‘Sweet’.
We also hear some strong opinions: « chaptalization is cheating! » « Aging wine is not making wine! » « A Vouvray ‘moelleux’ from raisining is more elegant than botrytised Sauternes! »
Noel Pinget is truly ‘not-be-missed’... the creator of a wine that has made Robert Parker cry ...
Topics covered in this episode:
- Biodynamic treatment of the Rudolph Steiner School is complicated!
- Wine tasting courses
- Sparkling wine—not Champagne—but what flavor!
- Explanation of the terms 'dry', 'semi-dry' and 'moelleux'.
- Chenin blanc in Vouvray and Chenin blanc from South Africa—any differences?
- Definition of verticality in wine.
- Is chaptalization cheating?
- Wine that has make Robert Parker cry…
- Raisinging: more elegant than Botrytis?
- Difference between a ‘Moelleux’ Vouvray and a Sauternes.
