NV Maison Antech-Limoux "Clara Vie" Brut Nature Blanquete de Limoux, Languedoc-Roussillon, France

Pouring a clear crystalline yellow with golden hues, the bouquet is expressive, offering delicate aromas of hawthorn blossom and crisp green apple, layered over richer, pastry‑like, nutty tones from the extended tirage period. On the palate the Brut Nature bursts with brisk freshness and energetic acidity, presenting waves of citrus, tart apple, mirabelle plum, and golden flowers that move seamlessly into a harmoniously dry, mineral‑sparked finish.

ABOUT THIS WINE

NV Maison Antech‑Limoux “Clara Vie” Brut Nature is a vibrant, zero‑dosage Blanquette de Limoux from the historic Domaine Antech in Languedoc‑Roussillon, France. This cuvée is a blend of 90 % Mauzac, with 5 % each of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay, all hand‑harvested from the family’s high‑altitude, stony vineyards overlooking the Pyrenees. After the traditional méthode traditionnelle fermentation and 24 months on lees in stainless steel, the wine is disgorged with absolutely no sugar added.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Maison Antech itself is a six‑generation family domaine, active in Limoux since at least 1860 and rooted in sparkling wine tradition going back over five centuries. Under current owner Françoise Antech, the estate emphasizes sustainable practices—Terra Vitis certified—leveraging Limoux’s unique climatological trifecta: freshness from the Pyrenees, mineral influence from the ocean, and Mediterranean ripeness. Their Blanquette range is the crown jewel of their terroir‑driven portfolio and this “Clara Vie” bottling is one of the most expressive examples of its kind.
