Rated estate (2025 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

The Sieur d’Arques cooperative is Limoux’s leading economic player, marketing 16 million bottles. A pioneer in single-vineyard selection, it has been committed to a quality-focused approach for twenty years and continues to produce exceptionally well-balanced wines. The “Toques-et-Cloche” white wine range, made from Chardonnay grapes sourced from the four Limoux terroirs, is aged in barrels in the Burgundian style with regular stirring, resulting in generous, charming, and perfectly balanced wines. A lovely range of high-quality sparkling wines perfectly complements the winery’s entire portfolio. Its consistent quality makes it a true flagship for the appellation.

Rated estate (2025 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)

About the estate:

The Sieur d'Arques cooperative winery is a key player in the Limoux wine region, where it accounts for approximately 60% of production. Founded in 1946, it now brings together some 205 members and owns a vast vineyard of 1,800 hectares spread across more than 40 municipalities, enabling it to conduct rigorous plot-by-plot selection across a wide variety of terroirs. Its Toques et Clochers auction, established in 1990, has given Limoux a renewed sense of prestige and drawn attention to its still wines.
