Blanquette de Limoux Brut AOC Première Bulle Sieur d'Arques

Sieur d'Arques is a signature of the Languedoc-Roussillon sparkling wines, in France, near the Pyrenees. The company is based in Limoux and owns 1804 hectares of vineyards. Première Bulle is the name of the range to which this wine belongs and which represents the top of the range of the collection.

It is a curious blend of 90% Mauzac, 5% Chenin and 5% Chardonnay, vinified starting from flower must only. A second fermentation in the bottle is followed by a rest on the lees for about 18 months.

The perlage is fine and persistent, capable of enhancing the fruity bouquet reminiscent of apricot, peach and pineapple, on a base of shortcrust pastry and lemon cream. On the palate, it is velvety yet fresh, tangy and savoury, making it the perfect accompaniment to any moment of conviviality.

Ideal with spinach quiche.
