"Rediscover this region's flagship wine, with its fine, crisp bubbles, showcasing the Mauzac grape!"

“Everything about it is good—there’s nothing to throw away”—that could be the motto of this Limoux producer! If the judges gave this Réserve a slight edge, it was because of the quality of its bubbles, its freshness, the vibrancy of its fruit, and its slight bitterness on the finish, which adds a refreshing touch and really wins you over.” (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

Rated estate (2024 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)

About the estate:

Françoise Antech-Gazeau masterfully leads this successful wine merchant, which has specialized in sparkling wines for six generations. Nearly one million bottles leave the cellars each year. A broad and highly consistent range of wines, of a high standard, with a clear focus on purity, minerality, and balance centered on freshness. The M30 cuvée, made from Mauzac grapes, impressed us with its outstanding ability to serve as an aperitif.
