Martial Richard Blanquette de Limoux
About the wine
Seriously elegant bubbles from the Limoux region
- Small-scale artisan winemakers in France are going through their toughest year in living memory. These guys rely on bars and restaurants, wine fairs and tourism to sell their wines, so they’ve really struggled. Millions of bottles of wine are stuck in cellars, going nowhere.
- With bills mounting, and the need to clear space for this year’s vintage, many winemakers are resorting to selling their wines in bulk to the government for a pittance, to turn them into hand sanitiser. That’s why we’ve decided to help.
- Seriously elegant bubbles from the Limoux region made with their native grape Mauzac. Mouthwateringly fresh and balanced, with ripe citrus fruits and a toasty finish. The perfect aperitif.

Serve thoroughly chilled at 7-8°C
Food match
It goes perfectly well with asian food, grilled fish or chicken, but my recommendation would be to drink it on its own as an aperitif.

- They're a pair of some serious pedigree - Françoise is a seasoned pro who made her first vintage back in '96 an Baptiste has travelled the winemaking world over, visiting over 800 estates in 25 countries, tasting around 10, 000 wines in the process.
