Antech Cremant De Limoux Emotion Rose 2024

This elegant sparkling wine originates from the Limoux region in Languedoc, France, which is historically recognized as the birthplace of sparkling wine (dating back to 1531). Maison Antech is a family owned estate now led by Françoise Antech, who represents the sixth generation of winemakers dedicated to the traditional method. The "Émotion" cuvée is crafted to reflect femininity and elegance, sourcing fruit from the estate's high-altitude vineyards where the Mediterranean and Atlantic climates meet.

Wine Description

The Antech Crémant de Limoux Émotion Rosé presents a delicate pale pink colour with a fine, persistent bead. The sensory profile is fresh and refined, featuring a bouquet of red berries (wild strawberry and raspberry) and white spring flowers. On the palate, the wine is crisp and harmonious, showcasing a balanced acidity and a creamy texture from 15 months of aging on the lees. It is characterized by its vivacity and a clean, fruity finish. This blend consists of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Mauzac, with a small percentage of Pinot Noir added for its signature rosé hue and structure. It typically has an ABV of 12% and is finished with a Brut dosage of approximately 8-10 g/L.
