AOC Crémant de Limoux
Grapes are exclusively hand-picked at the optimal ripening. There is a first fermentation in vats under controlled temperature at 16°C to develop aromas. The second fermentation called 'prise de mousse' takes place slowly in the bottle. Ageing on laths between 12 and 15 months.
A pale-yellow colour with green tints, bubbles are tiny and elegant. The nose is fresh with a mix of white flowers, white fleshed fruits like peach and citrus fruits aromas. Then, the wine develops notes of hazelnut and a subtle toasted. The attack is frank and vivid with a nice unctuousness. This sparkling wine is powerful, well-balanced with toasted notes on the finish.
