Crémant de Limoux


See Crémant de Limoux producers
The Limoux wine region is located in the eastern foothills of the Pyrénées in southern France, south of the city of Carcassonne.

The appellation of Crémant de Limoux was introduced in 1990 to allow a higher percentage of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay in the traditional blend of Limoux sparkling wines (represented in the appellation of Blanquette de Limoux which required a minimum of 90% Mauzac grape in the blend’s composition )

Crémant de Limoux contains 40-70% Chardonnay, 20-40% Chenin Blanc, 10-20% Mauzac and up to 10% Pinot Noir. AOC regulations require that the wine is aged for a least a year on the lees prior to disgorgement.
