This is a balanced, elegant, Crémant de Limoux, with no rough edges. The Chardonnay gives the wine brightness and a lively acidity, the Chenin Blanc adds richness and texture, while the Pinot Noir adds depth to the wine. This is an impressively balanced and complex wine. It is truly a testament to what this relatively obscure vineyard area is capable of producing.

Pair with: shrimp dishes, baked brie appetizer, and clam zuppa.
