low acidity, light and really refreshing
low acidity, light and really refreshing, most probably due to the prominent use of mauzac. Consumed with some light bites and went down very well and really decent value for the quality. I would rate this above the majority (but not all) of the cremants ive had and above any bottom range champagne.
Fabulous price and superb flavours

Why drink champagne when you can drink this?
This sparkling wine is just wonderful. It’s absolutely delicious, better than a lot of champagnes. And it’s about a third of the price of a comparable champagne – simply because it comes from Languedoc and they’re not altered to put “champagne” on the label.
Favourite Fizz
Absolutely love this fizz. Personally I prefer it to Prosecco or Champagne. It has lovely brioche and peach flavours and is great when enjoyed in the sunshine. I always bring this to bbq's and people love it.
Love it!
Absolutely my favourite fizz. I love Blanquette ever since I first tasted it in Limoux in the 80’s. It is hard to find over here and expensive. This is one of the best I have tasted and at a very good price. As good as champagne IMO. Dry, crisp and fruity, good on its own or with food. More body than prosecco and much more bang for your bucks. Try it! Please keep stocking it Tesco!
Marvellous.
This has become our favorite wine. Subtle flavours, pleasing aftertaste. Not in every store and seems to go quickly so grab it as soon as you see it. Why am I telling you this? We usually buy every bottle on the shelf, but I guess we need to share quality and spread the joy.
We drank the 2016 we bought earlier this year, Wit
We drank the 2016 we bought earlier this year, Witt our Sunday afternoon tea and it tasted like champagne - lasting mousse and yeasty aroma followed by zesty elegance on the palate and shirty apricot aftertaste but what do you expect from this genre? We think it it is such good value and adds a zing to a weekly treat.
Much better than Prosecco!
I love this Limoux. It's dry and crisp and far better than more expensive Proseccos I have tried. It's from a French wine region that has been making sparkling wine since before Champagne was invented, so let's just say they know what they are doing! I always stock up when it's on offer and it makes a great fizz for celebrations and gifts.
My go to fizz
Great wine at a very good price, this is my day to day sparkling wine, as good as a champagne of twice the price. Great complexity and flavour.
Delicious
This was absolutely delicious, small bubbles and very smooth.
