About this product

Historic. Elegant. A luminous sparkler from Languedoc’s ancestral cradle.
From the heart of Limoux—where sparkling wine was born in 1531—comes this sophisticated Grande Réserve Brut. Made predominantly from Mauzac (90%), with a hint of Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc, it offers beautifully persistent bubbles, radiant straw-golden hue, and an expressive nose of spring florals and orchard fruits. This refined fizz is a superb alternative to Champagne, recording Limoux’s terroir with elegance and heritage.

Why we love it:
This Grande Réserve is a delicious window into sparkling’s origins—floral, fresh, and terrifically food-friendly. It offers an authentic, refined experience at a beautifully accessible price point.

Limoux holds claim as the birthplace of sparkling wine, with Benedictine monks documenting Blanquette as early as 1531—nearly a century before Champagne. Crafted from Mauzac, a local grape noted for its green apple and fresh-grass character, this sparkling style is deeply rooted in terroir. The Grande Réserve Brut reflects traditional craftsmanship and modern finesse—showcasing Limoux’s clay-limestone foothills, cool climate, and centuries-old heritage.
