Jean-Louis Denois "Bulles d'Argile" Brut Nature Cremant de Limoux (No Sulfites Added)

Outstanding sparkling wine from the Languedoc? Absolutely and resoundingly, YES! There will be those of you who scoff at the price of this wine, and claim that a sparkling wine set so low will never be worth any serious consideration. Well, those of you would be WRONG. One of the rising stars of the Languedoc, Jean-Louis Denois makes exciting, world class wines that nonetheless remain amazingly inexpensive, owing to his location more than anything else. His vineyards sit in the very southwestern corner of France, at the foot of the Pyrenees, and he produces red, white and sparkling, all made from perilously low-yielding vines, vinified with as little interference as possible. The Bulles d'Argile is a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with no sulfites added. It is an extraordinary sparkler that rivals many Champagnes at twice the price! *Natural Wine* *No Sulfites Added*
