Blanquette de Limoux Mauzac Sparkling Wine | France’s Oldest Sparkling Wine
Discover the timeless elegance of Saint-Hilaire Brut, a Mauzac sparkling wine crafted by monks since 1531—centuries before Champagne became renowned. This France’s oldest sparkling wine offers a sophisticated blend of citrus brightness (grapefruit zest), tree-ripened pear, and green apple skin nuances, complemented by yeasty undertones reminiscent of freshly baked bread.
Why Choose Saint-Hilaire Brut?
- Creamy texture meets crisp acidity: A velvety mouthfeel mirrors premium Champagne but at a fraction of the cost
