Weekly Wine Show

This week we are talking about the Limoux wine region which is a part of the larger Languedoc region in southwestern France. It’s a pretty small region with only about 20,000 acres of vines and has four AOC désignations: three for sparkling wine and one for still wines.   Wine Recommendations Saint-Hilaire Blanquette de Limoux Brut - priced around $14. Nose: Minerality, golden apple, hint of bready quality Dry, med+ acidity Flavors: lemon, golden apple, white flowers, hint of bread Clean, crisp, and fruity with a touch of floral notes - very french. Aromas and flavors are similar but more intense in the taste vs. aromas. Check out wine-searcher to learn where you can purchase this wine   Domaine J.
