Antech
This family-owned winery dates back to the late 19th century. Today, the sixth generation—led by Françoise Antech —continues the legacy centered on the famous Limoux sparkling wine. The Antech winery in Limoux benefits from a magical terroir devoted largely to the production of fine sparkling wines. Located facing the Pyrenees, the proximity to the mountains and the altitude (400 m) lend the wines great freshness; Mediterranean and oceanic influences, respectively, add character; and the south-facing hillside exposure on stony soils ensures just the right level of ripeness and allows the terroir to fully express itself. Since 2013, Antech has been committed to the Terra Vitis program for sustainable and responsible viticulture.
In keeping with regional tradition, Antech produces almost exclusively sparkling wines under the appellations Crémant de Limoux, Blanquette de Limoux, and Blanquette Méthode Ancestrale, respecting the region’s traditions. The grape varieties used are true to the Limoux recipe: Mauzac, Chenin, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir. A collection of fine sparkling wines crafted in the purest Limoux tradition.
Led by Françoise Antech with pride and conviction, the winery has set out to revive the Mauzac variety with its latest range: M le Mauzac. This purely Occitan native grape variety is on the verge of disappearing from the vineyards, replaced by Chardonnay or Chenin. This range breathes new life and modernity into the Blanquette de Limoux appellation, in the hope of ensuring the survival of this Languedoc grape variety.
