Nicknamed \"Hurluberlu\" (an eccentric or visionary thinker), David manages 15 hectares of gravelly alluvial and clay-limestone soils strictly under certified organic and biodynamic (Demeter) principles. In the cellar, David is a pioneer of ultra-clean zero-zero winemaking: eschewing wood barrels in favor of concrete vats and subterranean clay amphorae, relying entirely on native wild-yeast fermentations, and bottling without fining, filtration, or any added sulfites.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Wine\u003cbr\u003e\"Hurluberlu\" is Sébastien David’s iconic, ultra-vibrant, glou-glou expression of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc. Sourced from 25- to 60-year-old vines, the hand-harvested whole clusters undergo a 20-day carbonic maceration in custom-built oval concrete tanks using indigenous yeasts. This gentle method extracts explosive fresh berry fruit and floral aromatics while avoiding harsh seed tannins. Unaged and bottled raw, the 2024 vintage bursts with crunchy red fruit, subtle pyrazinic herbal freshness, and a slate-like minerality—best served cold.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sebastien David","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67711476170901,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/gcfwines.com\/products\/sebastien-david-hurluberlu-saint-nicolas-de-bourgueil-2024-750ml-chillable-red-wine-bottle-12-abv","provider":"Good Clean Fun","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
