Drink it now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant. Initially named Société des Producteurs de Blanquette de Limoux, the Sieur D'Arques is the Limoux cooperative, founded in 1946, by the union of a handful of local winemakers. Located in the heart of the Limoux wine region, one of the westernmost appellations of the Languedoc, the vineyards of Sieur d'Arques extend over 1570 hectares. The technical team is led by Guilhem Marty. The cooperative is considered the greatest ambassador of the wines of the appellation. Limoux is the historic land of sparkling whites, the result of a discovery of which the monks of the Saint Hilaire abbey were the inventors in the 16th century. Here, the strategic location at the foot of the Pyrenees and the influence of the Mediterranean breezes create a unique microclimate where the white-berried vines thrive, producing excellent sparkling and still wines. The Saint Hilaire Cremant de Limoux Rosé is a wine with lively citrus notes and a vinous and warm flavor. On the palate it is fresh, clean and long. The perlage is elegant and persistent. This is a wine with a defined character that goes perfectly with salmon and pork filet, as well as succulent vegetarian dishes. Serve it well chilled at a temperature between 6 and 8 °C.
