Sa robe est vive, d’un jaune or pâle aux reflets argentés. Dès le premier nez, les arômes de noisette grillée, de curry et d’immortelle se bousculent. Puis il s’ouvre sur de fines notes beurrées qui étoffent la dégustation. En bouche, l’opulence est sage, parfaitement maîtrisée et correctement balancée par l’acidité du terroir de la Haute Vallée ! L’amplitude de l’attaque laisse rapidement place à une finale plus vive, presque saline.

The wine region of Limoux
Limoux is a relatively New appellation (created in 2003) in the eastern Part of the Aude region of Southern France, which applies to both red and white wines. The vineyards extend around the town that gave it its name, in the foothills of the Pyrenees east of the Languedoc-Roussillon/corbieres">Corbières and south of Carcassonne. Historically, this region is best known for its Sparkling wines, which are produced and sold under the appellations of Blanquette de Limoux and Crémant de Limoux. The vineyards here are higher and cooler than those of any other appellation in the Languedoc-Roussillon, and also further away from the moderating temperature influences of the Mediterranean.

It covers Dry table wines of all three colors (red, white and rosé) from the entire region, but leaves Sweet and Sparkling wines to other more specialized appellations. About 75% of all Languedoc wines are red, with the remaining 25% split roughly down the middle between whites and rosés.
