“A signature cuvée from Maison Antech, with a delicate effervescence. A quality Limoux perfect for everyday dining and those on a budget.”

“All the vintages presented were selected by the judges—quite an achievement. Among them, Eugénie, with its delicate effervescence and a very pale golden hue, reveals a nose of toasted notes and honeyed white flowers. A wine that combines fullness, roundness, finesse, and lightness on the palate, and soars into an airy, very fresh finish, lingering on white fruit. A superb achievement.” (Le Guide Hachette 2024).

Rated estate (2024 guide) 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable vintage, 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 a million bottles leave the cellars each year. A broad and consistent range of wines, of high quality, with a clear focus on purity, minerality, and a fresh, balanced profile. The M30 cuvée, made from Mauzac, impressed us with its outstanding ability to serve as an aperitif.
