Le Goût du Terroir : Champagnes de Vignerons

Le Goût du Terroir is an auto-entreprise created on April 1st 2019 in Reims by myself, Hugues Durville, a self-taught wine enthusiast.
From my experience, I believe I have acquired over the years a level equivalent to WSET 3.
I have learned everything on the ground for many years (about 30 years), by travelling through the vineyards of France, ... by meeting the winegrowers, by tasting many wines at winegrowers', professional and public shows, or even blind tasting by participating in numerous national competitions as president of the jury (Concours National des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants), by reading a lot of specialist magazines and books, by meeting wine professionals, oenologists, sommeliers, winemakers, wine merchants, salesmen, wine tourism guides, etc. ..
During this period I built up a fine cellar of 1600 Champagnes and wines from France.
Today, I have a stock of about 500 bottles of Champagne, all of which have been selected after tasting them at the 40 partner winegrowers of Goût du Terroir.
These serious and reliable winemakers are carefully selected, beyond their reputation, on the basis of their quality work, both in the vineyard and in the cellar, respectful of nature and their terroirs and of course on the very high quality level of their Champagnes.
My stock of Champagnes, very representative of the different regions of the Champagne region and their specific terroirs, covers all types of Champagnes.
In addition to amateurs and tourists, I often receive wine professionals at my tastings who appreciate and approve of my knowledge, my method, my pedagogy and my selections of wines and Champagnes. see more
