The Wine

Mauzac is an obscure grape, and it's Limoux’s calling card - a grape that is virtually unfound anywhere else. And it's what makes this wine (and its appleeation) uniquely interesting to wine lovers.

Chardonnay. Pinot Noir. Chenin Blanc. They've all contributed to the incredible rise of global sparkling wines in recent decades. But it is Mauzac has a singular and recognizable aroma of green apples that make it a wonderful addition to the globe's list of sparkling wines you need to try. This wine is unpretentious and hugely satisfying - gentle, easy and suave, with perfectly judged dosage.

The Producer

A few years back, Vergnes' patriarch - Jean-Marc Vergnes - met an untimely death at a young age. His widow, Isabelle, wanted to carry on but eventually needed to take on new partners, as she found it impossible to balance the business with the demands of her young family. I am watching to see if the quality-mindedness of this superb producer is compromised.

The Appellation

Historic researchers can argue over where sparkling wine was first "invented", but Limoux would be on the short list. Its limestone soils and markedly cooler climate make it a perfect locale for such an endeavor. The price-quality ratio is absolutely fantastic.
