Blanquette De Limoux Brut - Herpe Paul

With the Herpe Paul Blanquette De Limoux Brut, a first-class sparkling wine flows into the crystal-clear glass. It offers a wonderfully bright, platinum-yellow color. The perlage of this sparkling wine appears wonderfully persistent and fine in the glass. When swirling the wine glass, you can perceive a perfect balance in this sparkling wine, as it does not appear watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like on the glass walls. Poured into a sparkling wine glass, this Old World sparkling wine reveals delightfully noble and complex aromas of lemon, green apple, brioche and peach, rounded off by further fruity nuances.

Balanced and multi-layered, this crisp, creamy and light sparkling wine presents itself on the palate. On the finish, this sparkling wine from the Languedoc-Roussillon wine-growing region ultimately delights with a lovely length. Once again, hints of green apple and brioche appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the limestone- and clay-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of Blanquette De Limoux Brut from Herpe Paul

The basis for the first-class and wonderfully balanced Blanquette De Limoux Brut cuvée from Herpe Paul is Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Mauzac grapes. In Languedoc-Roussillon, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and limestone soils. The Blanquette De Limoux Brut is a thoroughbred Old World wine, as this French wine exudes an exceptional European charm that clearly underscores the success of wines from the Old World. The ripeness of the grapes for this wine made from Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Mauzac is influenced to a considerable extent by the climate of the growing region. In Languedoc-Roussillon, the grapes thrive in a rather cool climate, which is reflected, among other things, in particularly long and even ripening of the grapes and a rather moderate must weight. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by the fermentation of the base wines. After assembling the cuvée, further maturation takes place based on the Méthode Traditionelle. Afterwards, the Herpe Paul Blanquette De Limoux Brut matures in the bottle for several months and is then disgorged.
