Hachette
“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 for the quality of its bubbles, its freshness, the vibrancy of its fruit, and its subtle finish that provides a refreshing touch and wins you over.” (Le Guide Hachette 2024)
