Sparkling dry
This wine is born in the Limoux region, one of the coolest zones of Languedoc, where higher altitude, mountain influence, and limestone–clay soils preserve natural acidity and aromatic purity. The main grape variety is ‘Mauzac’, considered the historic heart of Blanquette, giving the wine its crisp apple freshness and a strong regional identity.
On the nose, aromas of green apples, lemon zest, white flowers, and fresh pear unfold, complemented by subtle yeasty, brioche, and wet stone notes — classic signatures of lees ageing.
On the palate, the wine is completely dry (Extra Brut), crisp, taut, and remarkably pure. Fine, elegant bubbles create a light texture, the acidity is lively and precise, and flavors are driven by apples, citrus, and a chalky limestone minerality. The finish is clean, refreshing, and precise, with a subtle saline edge.
The wine is made using the traditional method, with secondary fermentation in bottle and lees ageing, finished with minimal dosage to preserve clarity and tension.
Serve well chilled at 6–8 °C, and pair with fresh oysters, citrus-marinated seafood, or a goat’s cheese tart with herbs.
