Crafted under the curation of Burgundy-born winemaker Bruno Lafon, this cuvée draws its striking focus from the unique foothills of the Pyrenees in the southern Languedoc—an area universally recognized as one of France's absolute best-value alternative regions for world-class sparkling wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eWhile the Languedoc is generally hot, Limoux is highly unique. Sitting between 200 and 400 meters of elevation, it benefits from strong, cool oceanic and alpine air currents.
