Sparkling dry
Antech Cuvée Eugénie Brut Crémant De Limoux AOC is an exceptional sparkling wine born on the slopes of the Mediterranean coast, where 20-50 year old vines grow in clay-limestone soil. This wine is dedicated to Eugénie Limouzy, the legendary aunt of Georges and Roger Antech - a woman whose legacy inspires elegance, depth and respect for tradition.
The wine delights with aromas of white flowers, green apples, lychee and clover honey. The taste is delicate, elegant and soft, characterized by preserved freshness, balance and persistence of the aftertaste. The wine is produced using the traditional method (Méthode Traditionnelle), aged on the lees for about 18 months.
This is not only an expressive Crémant de Limoux, but also an emotional wine creation, created with respect for family tradition and the natural environment. The wine is produced using sustainable practices and years of experience at Antech Winery.
Serve at 7-8 °C with white meats, seafood and fish.
Antech, based in the Limoux appellation in Languedoc, entered the world of sparkling wine after 1931, when Edmond Antech joined the family business through marriage. Over the past decades, the estate has steadily strengthened its position by focusing exclusively on sparkling-wine production across three appellations: Crémant de Limoux, Blanquette de Limoux, and Blanquette Méthode Ancestrale. Today, the winery is led by sixth-generation family member Françoise Antech, who draws on tradition alongside modern, innovative solutions to reveal the unique terroir and history of the Limoux region.
Wine style
Antech sparkling wines are defined by refined freshness, a full texture, and a complex aromatic profile that reflects the character of Limoux.
Crémant de Limoux – produced by the traditional method, with Chardonnay typically in the lead, blended with Chenin Blanc and the local Mauzac, lending elegance and vibrant freshness.
Blanquette de Limoux – regarded as one of the oldest sparkling wines in the world; it is built predominantly (90%) on Mauzac, with the remainder coming from Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay, shaping its distinctive style.
Blanquette Méthode Ancestrale – a rare, naturally sweet sparkling wine made in the ancestral method exclusively from late-harvest Mauzac, offering fruity expression and natural sweetness.
Prestige vineyards
The estate farms around 60 hectares of vineyards planted with Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Mauzac—the essential varieties for high-quality sparkling production. As its own fruit is not sufficient for total production needs, Antech has also established long-term grape-supply agreements with 35 local growers, ensuring consistent quality and reliable sourcing.
Ageing and drinking window
The structure of Antech’s sparkling wines makes them immediately enjoyable, with an outstanding balance of freshness and an elegant aromatic composition. At the same time, their complexity gives them the potential to evolve further with time, gaining even greater depth and more pronounced character as they mature.
