The name says it all: L'Invitation is the bottle the Hure brothers want you to open first, the convivial welcome to their grower estate in Ludes, on the Montagne de Reims. Francois and Pierre Hure farm organically-leaning, roughly thirty-five-year-old vines and blend all three Champagne grapes here, forty percent Pinot Noir, forty percent Pinot Meunier, and twenty percent Chardonnay, built around a solera-style reserve they call the memory of the winery. This bottling rests on a 2020 base and comes in bone-dry as an Extra-Brut, dosed at just 3.7 grams per liter, so the chalk and the fruit do the talking. Three years on the lees give it depth without weight. It's grower Champagne with generosity built in.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
