The Terroir Tapes
Podcast Description
The Terroir Tapes is a podcast for those who believe that wine is more than what’s in the glass. It’s about place, people, and the quiet conversations that reveal the essence of both. Each episode takes you to the heart of a vineyard, a cellar, or a kitchen, where producers share their stories without hurry. These are long, unvarnished conversations, where the focus isn’t on perfection or pretense but on the real work of making wine and the ideas that shape it. For those who love wine’s nuance and its stories, this podcast is an open invitation to explore.

In this episode, I visit François Huré of Champagne Huré Frères in Ludes.
Ludes is our focus, and we explore the village’s diversity firsthand by visiting three specific parcels that represent three out of the four distinct sectors in Ludes.
The other theme of this episode is change or specifically the shifting climate in Champagne. This leads into a discussion on how they have adapted their approach in both the vineyard and the cellar, as well as a project that reaches beyond the borders of Ludes.
I hope you enjoy this insight into Champagne, Ludes, and Champagne Huré Frères.
