Limoux, the appellation within Languedoc is believe to be the birthplace of sparkling wine - not actually Champagne as most people think, Blanquette merely means white (or of white grapes). This newly released bubbly is certified 100% organic and won't break the bank.

The aromas are typically leesy/bread dough with citrus and garrigue (wild herbs) and a hint of toast. It is a lively bubbly with a bright, smooth mousse and suggests peach and gingery flavours. It's also a demi-sec which explains the kiss of sweetness on the palate.
Serve as an aperitif or with light seafood appetizers or soft cheese.
