The Languedoc in the South of France, with its backcountry and coast embracing the Mediterranean Sea, is the largest wine-growing region in the world. Rich in history, it also has one of the newest vineyards in the world. A land where tradition and modernity have always gone hand in hand, the Languedoc is the birthplace of viticulture and modern oenology. It is here that the great wines of the third millenium are being produced.
Limoux
In Limoux, south of the medieval city of Carcassonne, in the foothills of the Pyrénées, lies our terroir endowed with a sunny, temperate climate as well as a soil rich in limestone. Here the grapes ripen slowly preserving the balance between freshness and fruity aromas. This terroir is also ideal for the cultivation of one of the most rare, precious things in the world: the truffle. This rare mushroom, renowned for its strong, delicate aroma is highly sought after by food lovers who call it the “black diamond”. With their Terroir de Vigne et de Truffe wines, les Vignerons du Sieur d’Arques have perfected a subtle marriage of food and wine, their know-how and the richness of their terroir, a genuine gastronomical and cultural center.
Limoux Chadonnay Blanc
People who love Chardonnay won’t be able to resist this wine. Made exclusively from Chardonnay, it is aged under oak on lees for around ten months, giving it a beautiful, brilliant pale yellow with golden lights. The delicate nose is a bouquet of hawthorn, and white peaches blended with mineral aromas. After a fresh attack, the wine reveals a rich structure with persistant fruity, mineral flavors on the finish.
