Sadon Huguet - Bénédicte et Mathieu Huguet
A project like a Proust madeleine to remember those harvest mornings when we still trod the grapes by hand. To remember those moments when we look with childish eyes at these adults who taste this precious nectar from the barrel.
It is to share the idea that we can make wine differently and alternatively by combining rigor, sensitivity and sharing.
A project as a place of expression, reflecting a lifestyle turned towards nature and the ocean to feel again these moments of fullness and adrenaline.
A concept, because certain places, like forgotten nuggets, touch us and are like evidence that invites us to interpret it differently. Attached to the notion of "sensory landscape", we want these wines to evoke all the singularity of the soils on which the plots are based and "taste" the surrounding flowers and tree species.
The companionship of plants, agro-ecology, native yeast flora, the uncertainties of breeding, then take on their full meaning in this winegrower's approach.
Sadon Huguet was born from these convictions. Formerly used to quantify the work of a winegrower and his beef in a day, the Sadon unit of measurement has been revisited to share this terroir juice with you. We hope that you will experience as much emotion in tasting these wines as we do in having produced them.
On less than 2 ha of vines, located on a limestone plateau, we offer 3 cuvées with very different universes. The common thread remains chalk dust and wines envisaged without “filters”, all in native yeasts and without sulphur. Beautiful grapes and the right gestures at the right times remain our priority. During aging, stoneware amphoras cooked over a wood fire and Burgundy barrels help us to sublimate all these subtleties of the terroir.
